π’ Student of the Week Shout Out π’
πππ Well done to each of the winners of Student of the Week this week. The hard work continued towards gradings at the end of the month and everyone continues to put a shift in! However, these 3 in particular stood out from their classmates this week and what set them apart was how they all took on board advice to improve their techniques and applied it almost immediately to good effect πππΒ
π₯ The student that wins the award gets a certificate but also receives the Student of the Week personalised Black Belt to wear for their next session - in the hope that getting to wear a Black Belt for a session instills even more belief, confidence and motivation to achieve their goals.Β
π If you'd like to arrange a FREE trial for you or your child at any of our classes, please don't hesitate to contact us on [email protected] π©

π MONDAY MOTIVATION π
And what better way to MOTIVATE our students than with π¨π¨π¨ GRADING NEWS π¨π¨π¨
π€ Obviously the last quarter of 2023 didn't quite go as planned, with paternity leave and pneumonia limiting the amount sessions we were able to put on and impacting the proposed grading at the end of the year.
πͺπΌ However, all of our students have come to back with the bit between their teeth and have been working hard to maintain their levels for rearranged gradings and guess what? We can now confirm we have scheduled gradings for 30/01/2024 and 31/01/2024 π
π This will be a bumper grading with the majority of the club grading, so top form is required for the next couple of weeks π
π΄π‘π π’π€ There will be 9th Kyu (Red Belt), 8th Kyu (Yellow Belt), 7th Kyu (Orange Belt) gradings at our Oakley class on 30/01/2024 and 9th Kyu (Red Belt), 8th Kyu (Yellow Belt), 6th Kyu (Green Belt) and 3rd Kyu (Brown Belt) at our Chineham class on 31/01/2024.Β
π Here's a few key things to remember for those that are grading:
π§ Concentrate - keep your eye on that next belt prize! Don't worry about what others are doing, just focus on your own techniques.
πͺ Maintain strong stances throughout - don't fidget, play with your belt, look around the room etc., remain focused.
π§ Do the basics well - we'd rather you did the technique slower but correctly, than rush it and risk the technique not being up to your usual standard.
π― Aim for correct targets - remember to picture a mirror image of yourself in front of you, that you are imagining fighting.
π And finally, be CONFIDENT and RELAX - we know what you're capable of, we know you can do the techniques, so don't overthink it! We just want you to come out full of determination and show us just how good you are π

πππ CONGRATULATIONS TO SENSEI JOHN WHO PASSED PASSED HIS 4TH DAN GRADING BEFORE CHRISTMAS πππ
π What better motivation could there be for our students than seeing our instructors and Dan grades continuing to progress up the grades. Sensei John was passed by our Chief Instructor, Sensei Bernard Dominy - 8th Dan.Β
π¨ It takes an incredible amount of effort, dedication and practice to reach Black Belt, and even more commitment to maintain those high standards an continue to work your way up through the Dan grades.
