Lots of improvements could be seen with everyone’s performances, big well done. Shoutout to Nariman and Joseph who continue to improve and develop each competition. Nariman winning kata rounds, coming 2nd in his pool, and narrowly losing the bronze medal, Joseph getting unlucky with his coloured belt group being merged with the brown/black belt group! A special well done to Phoebe Bell, her first competition and coming away with Silver! Huge well done to all !
