Gradings day 2 complete and in almost 30 degrees of heat! There are some true warriors at Kenbu Dojo that’s for sure!!

From first belts right to junior brown belts we had a great display of our syllabus across the board. Spirits were high and the support amongst the whole club was immense.

Well done to each of you, you made Shidoshi Sinead very proud indeed!

Day 1 gradings complete! Congratulations to all those who tested successfully for their next ranks. It was no easy feat in this heat, that’s for sure!

So many great attitudes and spirits amongst this great bunch of kids. They worked incredibly hard over the last few months and absolutely turned up with their best efforts on show.

Covering all syllabus and sparring requirements they impressed the panel of 5 instructors.

Well done everyone and we hope you enjoy the rest of this wonderful bank holiday weekend.

Tomorrow is day two as we test our older and higher ranks! See you all on the mats!
