Dear All,
On Sunday 9th October 2011, Peter Hart and Ben Watkins stood in front of the National GTI black belt grading panel. Pete was tested for his second dan and Ben for his first dan. Both worked very hard and emerged exhausted from the demanding testing, having shown their skill in all aspects of Tae Kwon-Do.

I have great pleasure in announcing that both not only passed, but were complimented on their high standards, with one senior grading examiner and master commenting “we could do with more like them”.

Ben is also the first of the children’s class to achieve his black belt and set a standard for the rest to follow. I look forward to the next grading in May where we could potentially have 7 taking their black belts, one taking his second dan & two taking their third dans. This is a good time to start planning and training in readiness for the big day.

2012 will also be a big year for me as in October it will be 30 years that I will have been training in Tae Kwon-Do so it would be nice to celebrate in some way. Watch this space………
