Black Belt Grading April 2025: Results

Following today’s GTI Black Belt Grading, we’re extremely proud to present our club’s newest Black Belts!


Olly Gargan, 1st Dan
Eloise Williams, 1st Dan
Nikola Kliza, 1st Dan
Nicole Murphy, 1st Dan
Connor Murphy, 3rd Dan.

Each of them has worked incredibly hard in the run up to the grading, putting in lots of work in class and at home, training hard to improve their weaker areas, and digging deep to conquer their fears and self-doubt. It was a tough journey, but you made it! Now the hard work begins again…

Massive congratulations to you all. Very well deserved. You’ve done your club proud!

A fantastic day for the team today at the GTI North West Open in Liverpool!

We had a big team of 30 competitors and they did us proud, as usual! They all gave 100% and came away with 39 medals: 17 gold, 11 silver & 11 bronze!


Well done to Dominik, who sparred really well but just missed out on a medal; and to Ben for a really good effort in patterns at his first ever competition.

A special mention also goes to Francis, who was competing for the first time and fought really well to take bronze in sparring. One to watch!


Thanks to everyone who helped out today with setting up, organising and running the event. Well done to all our competitors and a big thank you to our coaches and our awesome cheering squad. What a team!
