π₯ Absolutely brilliant graduation grading from all of our WBBA students yesterday!
π₯ Over 5 and a half hours we awarded 80+ new grades ranging from beginner belts through to our most advanced
π₯ We saw a really high level of technique and effort guys and it was a great way to round out the year here at WBBA
π₯ special mention to Ethan in our Adults class who was double graded yesterday and passed both his red and red stripe belt! He consistently shows effort and progression in every class as well as absolutely smashing his grading yesterday so is hugely deserving of this!
