Very proud instructor to these amazing students today.
Laid on a fabulous display of bravery, energy and skill to my other examiners in their black belts grading.
They all passed and it was richly deserved.
I can’t wait to present you to the rest of the students on our return.
Been a while since I’ve posted about our club.
The club is absolutely buzzing right now, lovely students, great parents and good friendships throughout.
Always nice when a club instructor has this as it’s a joy to teach in every session.

Georgia has been trading hard towards her black belt and also has become a great teacher of the Tigers.
The award is also as a result of her brave fight with illness this year.
Nothing will beat Georgia as she continues to smile every time you see her.

Such an easy choice this year as Terry has trained super hard in the many sessions that he attends.
Does the most amazing kicks as he goes toe to toe with the Taekwondo experts.
Such a great team member that brings laughter and fun to the group like the previous winner did.
Julie has been ever present in our Taekwondo and LiFT & FiT sessions and you can see the progress.
The award is so deserving to a very popular member of our club.
A big year in 2024 especially as she progresses towards a black belt. #HampshireMartialArtsClubOfTheYear2023

Great team effort today and well done to the 25 students who took part in the Southern Championships.
Many, many trophies and medals won but the most important thing was the team spirit was truly fantastic.
Fantastic team effort today as they all performed brilliantly today in Basingstoke.
Another good Team Waterside Taekwondo performance to go with the Portsmouth one recently.
