Congratulations to Sensei Kim Mandy and Sempai Tatum Mandy who were both successful in the Seiwakai and JKF Goju Kai grading tests in London this weekend. Results as follows:
Kim Mandy
2nd Dan Goju Ryu Karatedo Seiwakai
1st Dan JKF (Japan Karatedo Federation) Goju Kai
Tatum Mandy
1st Dan Goju Ryu Karatedo Seiwakai
1st Dan JKF (Japan Karatedo Federation) Goju Kai
Kim and Tatum were a mother/daughter team who trained exceptionally hard over the course of the 2 days training. Association gradings are typically closed affairs but Sensei Richard was able to sit and watch their Seiwakai tests on Saturday and to be a part of their the JKF Goju Kai tests as the kumite referee on Sunday.
We are all very proud of their success and that they represented Seitou Ryu Karate with great spirit throughout.
