The Handbridge Shotokan Karate club was very well represented at this first Black and Brown Belt course of the year held in Chesterfield.

 

 

 

Due to a late start Arjun got to training even though he travelled with Philip and I that made the grading start late and finish late but who cares the important thing is Arjun passed Shodan with flying colours.

 

 

 

I should especially like to thank the 8 Black belts that made it up to the course and to Hanshi Sherry and Kyoshi Brennan for their cooperation in making photographic mementos of this great day for the clubs archive.
