Callum earned this award for excellent progress in Hyung (Forms).

Callum has been with me quite a few years now and has been chipping away every single week working hard and going through his gradings every 6 months. At his last grading in the summer he earned his Green belt with 2 tags. He performed at a very good standard, no mistakes and smashed his grading out of the park. I could not have asked for anymore effort. He has been training hard for his next grading.

Callum joined our senior class quite a while ago but the progress that has been made and still being made every single week during that class is awesome. He amazes me every week with his progress and exceptional memory. Callum is a born leader and very good at organising the lines of students in class and making sure the new students know what they are doing.

 

I love the way he conducts himself inside and outside the dojang, he really is a fantastic student.

This young man is becoming an amazing practitioner and loves learning the intricate parts of the Hyung (Forms) and also theHo Sin Sool (Self Defence) techniques.

Many of our new and younger students look up to Callum and it’s easy to see why. Calum is a very very talented young man indeed with so much potential.

It’s great to see a a practitioner so young moving the Soo Bah Do way correctly. He looks like he's been training a lot longer than he has that's for sure just by the way he moves. The concentration and focus is amazing, as is the correct breathing and timing.

I have no doubt whatsoever that Callum will reach Cho Dan (Black Belt) and beyond and will make an excellent Cho Dan Candidate.

I always say our Dojang is a place where magical things happen and Callum’s journey and story is testament to that. 

This young man has dilligently followed the Soo Bahk Do path and the foundations that were set on that very first trial class. 

I am convinced through his training and martial arts journey this has helped Callum in becoming the humble young man he is today. 

I am so happy he is receiving this award and recognition for all his hard work. 

An amazing student and practitioner. It is an honour to teach him and be part of his journey. I am so proud to have Callum training at my club. 

Well done Callum keep doing what you are doing. 

I am very very proud of you young man.

Our family class class was great, we started with a good stretch and warm up and then moved into sparring.

We then moved into our syllabus material hyung (Forms) and Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence) and IL soo Sik Dae Ryun (One Step Sparring).

Finishing off strongly with our customary lots of sit ups.

Our class theme was :- Grading Etiquette.

We discussed what level of etiquette I expect to see at grading and why a customary level of acceptable behaviour is so important in the dojang and every day life.

I always say you only get out what you put in. Your level of effort will equal your level of results.

Our senior class was great, working hard on Hyung (Forms) and Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence) and IL Soo Sik Dae Ryun (One Step Sparring).

Keep up the great work everyone.

Soo Bahk !!!
