Summer Grading – Sunday 23rd June 10.30 am
at Bungay High School – main hall (unless otherwise instructed)

We will need the grading fee of £28 per person in cash the week before
 the grading please, as we have to prepare all the paper work before hand
ready to hand in promptly on the day!

Doboks
Doboks are not necessary for the first grading but if we get enough people interested we will be placing an order soon (postage is very expensive so we need to order in bulk).

Please come and get an order form if you are interested.

We have a size chart so come and discuss with us before you place your order.

Protective Gear
We only have a certain amount of ‘spare sparring kit’ to go around!

It’s always nice to have your own kit, you can keep it smelling fresh!!

Again come and get a form (basic kit starts at £50 this includes hand, feet and shin protection) but do ask for help with sizing as they do vary.

GOOD LUCK
with your grading and remember practice makes perfect!

Taekwon

 

 

Students from Bungay and Beccles Taekwon-do Clubs travelled over 300 miles round trip to Ryton in Coventry to participate in a Black Belt grading.

Clinton Gillett (4th Degree International Instructor and 2000 World Silver Medalist) from Bungay Taekwon-do club represented the Black Belts as their senior GTUK instructor.

Three juniors, Kalun Bedingfield and Jenna and Sophie Akerman, had a long gruelling day all showing great Taekwon-do spirit throughout their grading, were awarded their Second Star (1 1/2 Degree Black Belts).

Veterans Susan and Nigel Bedingfield also took their grading and again after a very long day succeeded in passing the examination to become 2nd Degree (2nd Dan) Black Belts.

The examination covered Patterns (formation of moves), Step Sparring (for juniors) and Foot Sparring (adults), Self-Defence, Sparring, Breaking plastic boards and wooden boards respectively, and lastly being tested on their Korean terminology knowledge.

Logan Bedingfield was awarded his Unified International Taekwondo Federation Certificate personally signed by 9th Degree Grand Master Hwang Kwang Sung.

We would also like to congratulate Mr Steve King, examiner of the Bungay and Beccles club gradings on receiving his 6th degree and to Mr Darren Twelvetree and Mr Priest on succeeding to 4th degree.

A superb result for a tough weekends work!

Hi All,

Demonstration Reminder!

The main demo will be during the event, but we will be on hand all day to hand out flyers and to show ‘come and try folks’ how to kick and punch on a kick shield! Those who try will get a sticker!

All our students will be invited to join us on the day to help with the demo, patterns, sparring, destruction (black belts only).

Students helping with the demo and handing our flyers on the day will be awarded a special certificate during one of our  classes!

It would be good if you could confirm that you are available for the demo.
