Great effort from everyone attending the Shuzoku Wado-Kai Senior Grade Course today, focusing on the 2021-2022 Dan Grade Syllabus.
A minute’s silence was held at the start of the course in memory of Bobby Morton, who sadly passed away and will be fondly remembered and greatly missed.
Lisa Scott was awarded the rank of 6th Dan after a result of a technical assessment earlier in the week covering the full Wado-Kai Syllabus. A big thank you to our guest Colin Clapperton 8th Dan Wado-Kai for leading today’s course. Colin acts as a technical advisor and will be our chief examiner at the forthcoming Dan Gradings.
