Club instructors pass gradings










Sensei Andy, Sensei Steve and Sensei Dave
Sensei David Blackburn and Sensei Steve Wilkinson both passed their Sandan (3rd Dan) on Saturday 12th December, and I, (Andy Bailey) passed my Nidan (2nd Dan). All of us want to express our thanks to the other blackbelts, you have took the brunt of the instructing whilst we have been training over the last few months and appreciate your support in this.

Thanks to Sensei Bob Anderson (5th Dan Karate), for coming over to our club from Peterlee to conduct the gradings.

Also Sensei Marty passed his Ju-Jitsu Shodan (1st Dan) black belt grade on Sunday. Congratulations Marty.

Sensei Linda took some photos of Dave, Steve and myself, which I have now posted.
