Hi Everyone.
I have decided after some thought that the class times as of now will be 8-10 on Mondays and Thursdays and usual time of 9-12 on a Saturday.
This will be reviewed when Enzo returns.
If anyone has any queries regarding this please feel free to raise them.

Cheers

Welsh Open Results

This past weekend 11 of the team went to Cardiff to compete in the Welsh Open.

Out of the 11 the team returned with 5 medals which were won by the following:

Jonathon Mallaburn : GOLD

Paul McCauley : SILVER
Hafiz-ul Islam : SILVER

Duncan Mallaburn : BRONZE
Kasun Herath : BRONZE

The rest of the team, Dave Oakes (1st time competing at purple belt), Nishan Khednah, Richard Miranda (1st time competing at blue belt), Daniel Ekechi (1st time competing), Dominique Mondesir (2nd comp after only 7 months training) and Stu Anderson all fought well but unfortunately did not medal on this occassion.

There were some fantastic fights from the guys so well done everyone, especially the medal winners.

Also big thanks to Proffesor Arlans for the coaching and James Mallaburn for his assistance with the guys throughout the day.

Roll on the next competition where hopefully we can take an even bigger number of competitors.
