A great finish to a terrific year for the Brisbane dojo. Its always great to get some new members off their white belts, so well done Kenji and Dan. But the day was really dominated by the large green contingent that completed a very strong grading. You can always pick someone who has really prepared for a grading – for every aspect of it. so well done to Margit, Pauly (after a long, long break), Adam Doolan, Adam Faulkner and Jeff.

The strongest part of the grading was the fighting and the weakest section was the self defence. So those students who were weak in this area better watch out!!!

Special mention needs to go to our most improved students – being Anne Schneider and Adam Faulkner. Both doing excellent grading and their overall level of karate has really excelled due to their commitment.

I will take this opportunity to thanks everyone for their support this year and to wish everyone a happy Christmas and safe new year.

A big Osu!! And look forward to catching up on Jan 6th 2010.
