On Saturday the 11th of December we had the pleasure of hosting Master Daher who provided us with our 2nd Masterclass followed by our December Grading.
We also welcomed visiting instructor Mr Dave Proctor from Traralgon, who was kind enough to bring with him 2 of his students, Sarah and Shane,
The Masterclass covered the first four defences from a new Self Defence syllabus. The moves were explained thoroughly, point by point and then
practiced by all students. The moves were simple yet very effective and even our younger students grasped the moves very quickly. Overall the new
self defence syllabus was met with much enthusiasm and we look forward to implementing it during classes for next year.
We then moved onto the Grading which saw Mr Bryan Dance grade to 1st Degree
Black Belt. He describes his journey to Black Belt as ’16 years, five clubs, two countries, countless bruises, and a few fractures later……”
Standout performances included Leiana Keogh, Ingrid Wood, Jon Grandin, Mitch Sammut and Mickey Thomas. We also had a number of students offered positions on the Il Shim Squad for
the 2013 World Championships which was fantastic.
