Black Belt Grading Success
New 2nd Dans at the Academy!
On Saturday June 12th Both Hannah Thomas and Alys Davies Abbott travelled down to the National Taekwondo Headquarters in Cardiff to grade for their 2nd Dans.
Both have trained really hard for this and demonstrated their skills on the day to impress the grading examination panel and both passed their gradings.
So we are very pleased to announce that we now have two new 2nd Dans at the academy!
Huge congratulations to both Alys and Hannah.

Not only has Freya achieved her Black Belt but she is also our youngest ever student to do this beating a 14 year record.
If this was not enough she was awarded 'Best In Grading' by our association. This means out of everyone that graded that day the Master examiners decided Freya deserved the award for the best performance! A huge achievement at such a young age.
