Grading December 2015

Judging Panel: John Hurley (5th Dan), Alex Buxton (3rd Dan), Jeff Archer (1st Dan)

This was a larger grading with 15 hopefuls. The overall standard and energy were very high from start to end and the judges were very impressed.

Performances of note were George Palmer who really shone and showed a lot of power in his grading.

Adriana Hinds kept her energy and form up during the whole two hours. Immanuel Babaloa showed that all his practice had paid off with excellent form. Chloe Prior also showed real determination and skill. The performance of the day went to Olivia Gooch who was as sharp at the end of the grading as she was in the beginning. All these students were awarded well-deserved 1st class passes.
