Black Belt GradingA much smaller grading than the mid year one, but perhaps even a bit harder. Sensei Mark, Sensei Joe and Sensei Daniel took the candidates through a gruelling 3 hour session, consisting of a lot of basics in stance, plenty of combos and kata. Sparring was of a high quality and both students grading did very well. Congratulations to Barbera Hessellschwerdt and David Weir for attaining their Shodan-ho grade.
