Dexter earned this award for excellent all round progress.

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

Dexter joined us a few weeks back, he loved the trial classes so much he was very eager to join our Soo Bahk Do Family. He is a natural and fitted in straight away. He was like a duck to water and is absolutely flying and picking up everything very well. I am really looking forward to seeing how he progresses over the coming months, he has lots and lots of potential. 

Dexter is a very clever lad and is gifted with a photographic memory and is picking up the forms and movements very well.

Dexter trains very hard always giving 100% effort which is great to see.

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

Confidence is increasing week by week. We are working on kicking techniques and movement and lots of syllabus work. Although it's early days I can already see massive improvements in all areas.

I couldn't be happier or ask for anymore from Dexter. Im so happy he is getting rewarded for all his hard work.

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

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

In our family class we worked very hard on our movement and kicking techniques with use of the hip (Huri).

We then moved into some very good sparring. It was very hot in class but the energy was electric tonight.

We then moved onto lots of syllabus material. Hyung (Forms), Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence) and IL Soo Sik Dae Ryun (One Step Sparring).

Our class theme tonight was:- Intensity

The quality of being intense. Great energy strength and concentration.

We discussed our class theme and why intensity is so important in our martial arts training and every day life. There may be times where we need a certain amount of intensity to get through what ever we are doing. Eg Forms (Hyung) I would expect all out students to be focused and intense on getting the movements correct and giving their best effort at all times.

We then moved into lots of kicking techniques.

We then moved in Hyung (Forms) Ho Sin Sool (Self Defence )and IL Soo Sik Dae Ryun (One Step Sparring).

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

Our senior class was great. 

We practiced hyung (Forms) and Ho sin Sool (Self Defence) also IL Soo Sik Dae Ryun (One Step Sparring).

Keep up the great work everyone.

Soo Bahk !!!
