Xmas dinner 2009
Once more this year is coming to its end. 2009 was a year of celebrations (10 year anniversary), victories and achievements for the club and its members.
As we like to party as much as training once more it was time for celebrations. With 20 people around the table mixing novices with senior ranks and instructors, food and great company it was surely an event not to missed and we are sorry for those of you that did. Here are some pictures of the event:
Grading Dec 2009
On 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:
