2023 Exclusive Black Belt Training

& Higher Belt Training for Red-stripes – Deputy Blacks

We are very excited to announce the 2023 dates for the exclusive Black Belt training.  For those of you who have not attended one of these events, these are specific events for higher belts taught by Master Poplett (4th Dan), Master White (4th Dan) and myself.  Included in those dates is an event in CANTERBURY on 26th February. (BOOK NOW)
 
NEW FOR 2023 we are going to trial opening up the IMC events in Swindon and Southampton only to red-stripes and above for the first 2hrs only and then black belts will remain for the rest of the IMC.  All other venues (Canterbury, Warrington & Street) will remain exclusive to black belts only. 
 
All details can be found on the booking forms (please note that the booking for the new IMC events in Southampton & Swindon is slightly different to the normal IMC bookings for Kent, Warrington & Street).

Master Finch & team

Due to the school having no heating for the past 48hrs the venue is closed and therefore we will not be able to run classes this evening.

Please accept our apologies for the late notice – they were hoping to have the problem solved by this time.

We will endeavour to add a little extra time to classes to make up for this week. In the meantime, wrap up warm and we will see you next week (20th Dec) for the last class of 2022 and for some belt presentations for our successful students at the last grading.

Take care

Master Finch
