Celebrating our new Dan Grades!

Posted on 01/11/2022

What a fantastic weekend we have had celebrating the successes of my students at the recent PUMA Black Belt gradings! New 1st, 2nd and 4th degree grades returning to Chesterfield Taekwon-Do!

Passing a Black belt is a huge achievement, but for me seeing the youngsters grow in the art makes me so proud!

This set of results was extra special. Itâ€™s not everyday that you congratulate one of your students for passing a 4th degree. I am over the moon for you! Someone who I have trained with for some 25 plus years, an inspiration to students at Chesterfield and a friend! Just awesome Sir ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘

Thank you to each and everyone of you for your hard work, dedication and for making teaching TKD an absolute joy!

A massive shout out to all the NCTKD students who passed this time too. what a fantastic bunch we have up North!! Go team!
