A huge 'Congratulations' to all my club members on their Black Belt Grading..

Well done to: Sam on his 2nd Degree Black Belt, Johnny 3rd Degree Black Belt, Jake 1st Degree Junior Black Belt, Oliver 1st Degree Junior Black Belt, Owen 1st Degree Junior Black Belt, Taylor 1st Degree Junior Black Belt, Millie 2nd Degree Junior Black Belt.

As my members are aware, this is the first Black Belt Grading I've completed without my husband Jay by my side. I have to admit I was feeling extremely nervous in the run up. However, I have to say that all my students gave 100% effort, came in with so much enthusiasm and completely embraced the Black Belt attitude that we expect and did not let me down. I really didn't need to be nervous at all and that is a true testament to my students!

At this moment in time, I feel completely overwhelmed by everyone's 'can do' attitude and knowing that they all came in and smashed it just adds to that! It was an extremely emotional time for me, presenting each and every student with their new black belts and knowing that Jay would have been so proud only enhanced the experience.... so before I start getting too slushy I'm going to sign off and just part with this:

Well Done everyone! What an amazing Paragon family we have...
