Grading this Sunday 28th Kenilworth 2026 5pm Start

Grading Reminder – This Sunday
Dear Students and Parents,
Just a quick reminder about Sunday's grading:

🥋 Please wear:
- White dobok (top and bottoms)
- Hair tied back
- Dobok should be clean and ironed

⏰ Arrival Times:
- White Belts, Yellow Tags, Green Tags and Green Belts: Arrive at 4:50 pm for a 5:00 pm start.
- Blue Belts and Above: Arrive at 5:20 pm. Your grading will begin at approximately 5:30–5:40 pm.

📍 On Arrival:
The grading will take place in the studio. Please wait downstairs in the seating area until you are called upstairs in small groups.

While waiting, please remain seated. As this is a public area, there should be no sparring or practising patterns downstairs.

👨‍👩‍👧 Parents:
Please bring one parent per student only. Parents will not be able to watch the grading and should remain downstairs or wait in their cars.

🥊 Sparring:
There will be no live sparring at this grading. Instead, you will complete shadow sparring, so there is no need to bring sparring equipment.

🥋 Patterns & Korean:
You will be expected to perform additional patterns, so please make sure you have practised them thoroughly. Also, ensure your Korean terminology is on point, as this will be assessed.

🏆 Outstanding Performance Award
There will also be a special award for the Outstanding Performance of the Day. This is open to every student, regardless of grade—from white belt through to red belt grading for black tag. The award recognises overall performance on the day as well as your attitude and effort in class.

Please help students stay calm and confident. A little practice is encouraged, but don't let nerves get the better of you.

Good luck to everyone! We look forward to seeing you on Sunday, and results are expected to be available on Monday.

Lincolnshire championships 2026

I just want to say to you all what a proud day it has been today at the Lincolnshire Championships. You all made me incredibly proud.

Watching you compete, support one another, and give your best effort was fantastic to see. Yes, there were a few mistakes from the referees and umpires, but as I said, they are volunteers who are doing their best and giving up their time to help make these events happen.

Despite that, we’re coming home with a lot of medals, and we won by a huge margin. You should all give yourselves a well-deserved pat on the back. Every one of you did brilliantly.

Rest up and recover, because on Monday I’ll be pushing you hard again!

Well done, everyone, and thank you for all your hard work, commitment, and support. I’m very proud of you all. 🏅👏

BTC Championships results June 2026

🥋🏆 Another fantastic day for all of my students who took part in the Worcester BTC Championships on Sunday! 🏆🥋

💙 I am incredibly proud of every one of you. You were all outstanding—not only in your performances but also in the way you conducted yourselves.

👏 You were polite and courteous in both victory and defeat, always remembering to say thank you to the referees and umpires.

🤝 Most importantly, if you lost a fight, you went over to your opponent, shook their hand, and congratulated them. That is what we do, and it reflects the values of our team.

🌟 Your respect, sportsmanship, and attitude make me just as proud as your achievements on the mats.

💙🥋 I couldn’t be prouder of you all. Well done, team! 👏🏅

First off all I was very happy with the standard with you all. There is always bits where I could see but very happy with the results.

So well done to Natalia, Jack and Kacie on passing there first Dan Black belt boom boom. It shows how much you enjoy the club and TKD as it reflected when you were performing so take a bow.

Another student that has been with us for a very long time. Very quiet in class but always polite and has a smile on his face when we talk.

I am so pleased to see Aiden get his 2nd Dan just fantastic and a very good grading young man proud is just not enough!.

Now we had three old people doing there grading as well going for 5th Dan. Carl, Carla and Andrew from my Kenilworth club. Now that’s dedication or I must be a fantastic instructor to keep them motivated for more than 20 years. I sat there very proud again as many clubs don’t have senior grades. By the way you all did really well. Other people do not know what your all been through with health and just old age. Lets look forward to your 6th Dan in a few years.

Well done all World Master Carter 8th Dan.
