Taking time our to celebrate our 5 Year Anniversary!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 5 Year Anniversary & Awards Night on Friday 10th November.  It was great to see everyone all dressed up and out of their doboks. 


Since our first class on Monday 3rd September 2018, we've taught over 1500 hours of classes and have been lucky enough to see over 150 students take part in our classes. 


Thank you to all those students and their families who have supported the club over the last 5 years.  It's been fantastic seeing how much everyone has grown and all of their achievements.


In the past 5 years we've hosted 11 Colour belt gradings and 4 National Blackbelt gradings.  We've also taken part in over 20 National tournaments bringing home 55 Gold, 61 Silver and 75 Bronze, not to mention our International success with our competitors claiming 1 European Silver, 7 European Bronze and 1 World Bronze.


We hope you had a nice evening celebrating the end of the year with us and all of those students who have made the last 5 years special.

Thank you also to those who worked hard behind the scenes to help make it possible, especially Petrina Michelle Lancaster and Emma Holmes for the amazing cakes.
