Purple Dragon - Plymouth, England

15/11/2022

Last Sunday, our Black Belt Grading candidates from various dojos locally, and internationally, participated in a run/hike to Breezy Pines. They were accompanied by other Purple Dragon students, parents, supporters and loved ones. It was truly a great day, especially having the opportunity to workout and spend time with our purple brothers and sisters from Purple Dragon ATL and Purple Dragon Point Grey. We hope to spend time on and off the floor, with all the Purple Warriors that are coming to Trinidad and Tobago, for Purple Dragon's 50+2 Golden Anniversary and Black Belt Grading #147.

The Aim: To ensure that my students are able to fully discern the mechanics and science that propels a martial artist’s movements. It’s so much more than just going through motions, it’s about understanding and application and then taking a student and equipping them with the knowledge to ensure longevity from generation to generation – Professor Don Jacob.
