Special congratulations to our newest shodan (1st dan) and two new sandan (3rd dan) black belts who passed their gradings on Wednesday 19^th June 2019. They took their grading under the watchful eye of the panel consisting of  Sensei Austin Birks 5^th dan, Sensei Susan Hession 4^th dan, Sensei Richard Amuzu 4^th dan and Sensei Dorien Cummins 2^nd dan  (widow of our late sensei and club founder Shihan Cyril Cummins 8^th dan).

It had been over eight years since some of them had previously graded but they have shown dedication and determination in their training to reach this point. They had a tough grading which tests character as much as technique and all passed admirably.

Well done Angela Notice – Shodan, Hanna B. – Sandan and Sensei Jeffett Jenkins – Sandan.
