Very well deserved.

Daniel earned this award for excellent all round progress.

I am very pleased that Daniel is training at my club. He has made many new friends and is really enjoying the black belt journey. 

Daniel joined us around 7-8 months ago. He loved the trial classes so much he couldn't wait to to join our Soo Bahk Do Family. 

He is a natural and fitted in straight away. It is early days but he really is on a great path. I am really looking forward to seeing how he progresses over the coming months as he is doing really really well. He has lots and lots of potential. 

Daniel took his first grading just before christmas earning his yellow belt. He did very well no mistakes.

Daniel is a clever lad and a very fast learner and is picking up all the Hyung (Forms) and Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence) very well. He trains very hard always giving 100% effort which is great to see. His concentration levels are amazing.

He loves practicing what he has learnt and also sparring and Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence). 

Confidence is increasing every week. We are currently working on stances, kicking techniques and movement and lots of syllabus work. Daniel is getting ready for his summer grading which he is well on course for. 

Although it's early days I can already see massive improvements in all areas.

I couldn't ask for anymore from Daniel, he is doing so well. I am so happy he is getting rewarded for all his hard work.

Watch this space because Daniel really is one to watch. He will 100% be a star at my club.

Keep up the great work Daniel keep doing what you are doing. I am very proud of you young man.

We had a visitor tonight. Mr Neal a senior instructor from up North. Thank you so much for visiting Sir. You are more than welcome anytime.

Our family class was great we started with a good stretch and warm up.

We then moved into some sparring and syllabus work. Working hard on Hyung (Forms) and Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence).

Our class theme tonight was:- Pride

Being especially proud of a particular quality or skill. Satisfaction from ones own achievements, also the achievements of those whom one is closely associated.

We discussed our class theme and why pride is so important in our martial arts training and every day life. 

The energy in class was absolutely awesome tonight. Everyone will sleep very well. They were all absolutely dripping with sweat by the end.

Closing off strongly with a group effort of lots of sit ups, we had a excellent class.

Our senior class was great. 

We stearted with some advanced sparring techniques, we then moved into syllabus material.

Next week someone will receive a student of the week award. 

Keep up the great work everyone.

Soo Bahk !!!
