Black Belt Training Sessions
These sessions are only compulsory for those who are about to take a black belt grading. They are also highly recommended for all 1st Kup black tags and black belts – especially in preparation for gradings. The sessions aim to polish off your line work and patterns, as well as introduce and practice advanced black belt techniques and pad-work. The sessions are usually run by Masters Russ Martin 7th degree, Andy Mole 7th degree and Mr Andy Reynolds 4th degree. You will work hard, and have fun!
Cost £10 cash on the door please.
