RyuKyu Kobudo Eastern Cape

Grading time for some of our kobudo students!

Congratulations to Roy Darrin Smith and JJ Jordaan for obtaining their new blue belts, and David Hewson for achieving 1st kyu brown belt.⚔️🥋

Some focused shots of them practicing kata before the time with guidance from Sensei Natalie May and actions shots of their bunkai during the grading. Super proud of the hard work and dedication these 3 men have put in over the past few months!

Our grading candidates for June!😉

Going through last minute tweaks with bo and sai before grading day, end of June.

What a start to 2026!🥳🏆

Our PE team received the Norman Reinach Trophy for Ryukyu Kobudo Best Team Event. This award was given to our team for their excellent efforts and performance in the WUKF Nationals last year.

Well done to our students: Nikita May, Ernst Ferg and Sarah Ferg! Along with our very own... Sensei Natalie!🥋

We would just like to thank Sensei Natalie for all the hard work and effort she put in to coaching our team💓. It is very well deserved!

Congratulations: " The A team "😉
