Grading 16th September.

We will have our first coloured belt grading on Thursday 16th September at St Werburgh's Primary, Mogg Street ( see training page for location ). We are fortunate to have Master John McNally joining us alongside Master Noel Downer for the grading.

Master John McNally is one of the founding members of the ITC and we will have a short seminar along and meet and greet exercise at the end of the grading so that students and parents alike can meet each other and John. The seminar will last approximately 30 minutes and is open to all students, and their families.

Students that are grading should arrive before 5:30pm and ideally will all be wearing the new doboks, subject to getting them prior to the grading. If you are not grading but are able to attend the seminar and meet and greet then you can arrive at 5:30 to watch the grading or at 6:30pm for the meet and greet.

Thanks, Noel.

New Juniors Sessions

We have updated our lesson times and got a great new location. Tuesday and Thursday sessions will now be held at the Silver Birch Site of St Werburgs' primary, just two roads dowm from the Willow site. This larger location allows us to run classes slightly earlier to better address the needs of our Junior members and so there will now be sessions at 5:30-6:30pm on Tuesday and Thursday just before the main classes.
Thanks, Noel.

See our training page for full lesson details.
