Each year, the KUGB offers two complimentary Special Dan Grade Courses for our Black Belt members. Today’s course took place at the impressive Sports Village, Bath University.
Led by Senseis Billy Higgins, Frank Brennan, and Garry Harford, who are all members of the KUGB’s Technical Committee, these sessions focus on advanced Kata, Kihon, Kumite, and Bunkai. The courses are designed to refine skills and uphold the KUGB’s rigorous standards.
All black belts are encouraged to attend, not only those preparing for grading, to help maintain the technical excellence of the KUGB.
After two hours of intense training, a brief break followed before the grading commenced. During the grading, Examiners assess candidates on Kata precision, attitude, discipline, and technical proficiency to ensure the high standards are upheld.
Congratulations to the successful candidates:
