Grading Dec 2009

DSCN3317ROn Sunday 6 December CARISMA awarded a number of new belts, including a brown, two blue, 3 green and various orange and yellow ones.  The technical level of all participants to the grading was, once more, very high and it was reflected by very high scores in their respective grading forms.

Well done to everyone and special thanks to James B. who helped with the grading.

Please have a look at some of the pictures of the grading here:

Xmas Dinner 2009

For those who have been hiding in a cave, it may come as a surprise that not only is the next grading on Sunday, December 6th, but it is to be followed by the time-honoured tradition of the Carisma Xmas Dinner.

Tang Chinese LogoThis year’s dinner will take place at the Tang Chinese Buffet Restaurant and Bar, on Napier Street. Places are available now, for the princely sum of £14.95 (drinks are charged separately on the day). We’ll be taking names & collecting cash before each training session.

This is a once-a-year opportunity to change the colour of your belt twice in one day – once in recognition of the effort and commitment you have put into training with Carisma, and once in recognition of the vibrantly coloured food you have spilled down yourself.
