To say we are proud of Benjamin & Selina, would be an understatement! Yesterday, they smashed their black belt gradings, pushing through emotional and physical pain; giving their absolute best all the way through. It has been such a privilege to share this journey with them; watching them grow from being little children into the mature, confident young people they are today. We knew they would smash it - we've seen them conquer their fears and push through with their determination and resilience before today; that has been part of their journey and yesterday was the official and formal recognition of that. Well done Benjamin & Selina; GKKC's newest Dan grades! 🥳🥰👊👊

Sincere thanks to Sensei Julian for sharing his knowledge and skills with us!
