Each year, the KUGB organises free Black & Brown Belt Courses throughout the UK, designed to help Karateka hone their skills in preparation for their gradings. Each session lasts 90 minutes, is packed with intensive training and is led by two of our most Senior Instructors, Sensei Billy Higgins (8th Dan) and Sensei Frank Brennan (8th Dan)
