We are very proud of our special student Barbara Mazza, who has worked extremely hard and
shown fierce determination and commitment over the past two years and was rewarded by gaining her 2nd degree.

The Black Belt Grading took place in Coventry on 26th October, in front of the GTUK’s Grand Master Oldham, Master Auciello and other senior examiners.

Her performance was exemplary throughout the day as was her Taekwon-do Spirit.

Amazing things happen to Amazing people.

Great Days work at the GTUK British Taekwon-do Championships by our Beccles squad.

We took a small but powerful Beccles squad to the GTUK British Taekwon-do Championships held in Coventry on Saturday 5th Oct 2019.

Our students performed impeccably all day, both on and off the mats, showing great Taekwon-do spirit and courtesy, and gained the following achievements:

Lousie Nicoll – Junior Girls, Yellow Belt
Gold Sparring (GTUK British Champion)

Tyler Mingaye – Adult Male, Green Tag Belt
Gold Patterns, Gold Sparring (GTUK British Champion)

Sophie Akerman – Adult Ladies, Black Belt
Silver Patterns, Silver Sparring

Jamie Nicoll – Junior Boys, Yellow Belt
Silver Patterns

Jenna Akerman – Adult Ladies, Black Belt
Bronze Patterns

Barbara Mazza did not have any veteran competitors so was entered into the younger adults categories, and joined Jenna Akerman in a competitive sparring section that saw them both experiencing 2 rounds of sparring against 4th degree World Champion Mrs Emma Collett!

Bella Gibson(Junior Black Belt) along with Beccles instructors Mr and Mrs Bedingfield worked tirelessly all day as officials.

Well done everyone, a few photos follow, but more can be seen and purchased here from the official photographers:

A message from Mr & Mrs B and their Black Belt Team 🥋

“This weeks Monday and Thursday Taekwon-do classes were probably the best group of students we have ever had!”

…. or maybe it’s just that we are getting the hang of teaching Taekwon-do after all these years 😁

Seriously, it is a real pleasure to teach such focused and hard working groups, and to see that Taekwon-do does make a difference to the lives and wellbeing of students of all ages.

Onwards & Upwards Beccles Taekwondo!

Ouch … one little Taekwondo Warrior on crutches from sparring … but she will be back soon!

Taekwondo Warrior

One little Taekwondo Warrior on crutches from sparring … but she will be back soon!

Katie damaged her knee when sparring in the Beccles dojang on Monday evening, but she was excellently attended to by Mrs Bedingfield, cold pack applied, then a late night follow up to A&E to check the damage. Fortunately soft tissue damage only and will mend soon.

Katie’s Mum said “These things happen when they all try so hard! She’ll mend soon enough and she’s doing her best to not let it stop her! She was looking cheeky in the photo cause it was 1am after a long wait in A&E and she was finding it very amusing trying to figure the crutches out!”

All at Beccles Taekwon-do wish her a speedy recovery.
