Delighted to announce that Molly was successful in her promotion to 1st Degree Black Belt.

I started teaching Molly in 2019 when I took over the Uckfield classes, but she has been training for 12 years since she was 4 years old!

No journey is without its bumps in the road, but her dedication and consistency to training have paid off. A massive well done to you.

Molly is our 10th student from the club to be promoted to Black Belt, so for me, this one is a special milestone.

Competition is hard but it is a brilliant test of our skills and a great way to improve. Next competition is in less than a month, I hope to see many of you there.

Thank you to Mrs Efstathiou and Mrs Arroyo for Umpiring and coaching over the weekend.
