No Date Yet - Colour Belt Grading Seminar
This seminar is open to all green belts to red belts although black tags are welcome to attend. All ages may attend (Adult - Junior - Peewee). The training fee is £7 (£5 each if more than one from the same family are training). The training will take place at the Trident Academy from 1pm to 4pm.
Although it is not compulsory to attend the seminar so that you can grade I believe that there are big gains to be made by doing so.
There will be a patterns competition at the end of the seminar for all age groups with bronze, silver and gold medals up for grabs. All juniors and peewees will receive an attendance badge that they can sew onto their dobok.
