Grading DONE!!!

Well done team.

After a long 8 years wait!!!!

Jnr Grandmaster Kevin, along with Snr Grandmaster Sands, linked up to grade together

SGM Sands applying for his 9th Dan Bo and JGM Kevin applying for his 8th Dan

After 2 separate days of training and assessments, by SGM Sung Soo Lee

SGM Sands and now SGM Kevin were presented their new Dan level by SGM Lee, at the Australian Hapkido Federation Seminar yesterday, in front of a large number of Black Belts, a very proud moment.

SGM Kevin commenced training under SGM Sands in 1990, with SGM Sands commencing his training in the late 80’s

It is a massive dedication and commitment, both passing their knowledge onto others.

We are back for 2026

TSDA recommences this Wednesday 14th January 2026

A big year ahead

I will see you on the mats on Wednesday

Cheers JGM Kevin
