Testimonials
From parents of students . . .
"Just a quick note to thank you for the effort you have put in to getting my son to his Orange belt. He was so pleased to have got there. It is over a year now since he joined the club, we have noticed that his confidence, concentration and coordination have improved immensely during this time, a lot of credit for this must be down to the teaching and philosophy of the club.
Once again Thanks."
