🥋 WELL DONE TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK PART IN SATURDAY’S BELT TESTING! 🥋
What a fantastic day at DBBA!
A huge well done to every student who stepped onto the mats and gave their very best. The effort, focus, determination and attitude on display throughout the day were outstanding.
Belt Testing is about more than earning your next belt—it’s an opportunity to challenge yourself, demonstrate your progress and continue your journey towards Black Belt.
Whether you achieved the result you were hoping for or have a little more work to do, every grading is a valuable learning experience and another step forward.
Thank you to all of our instructors, volunteers and parents for your continued support.
Keep training hard, keep improving and we’ll see you back on the mats! 🥋💪

A huge congratulations to James on earning his KidsZone Black Belt.
Becoming a Black Belt isn’t about being the best—it’s about having the commitment to keep going, the discipline to keep learning, and the determination to never give up.
Seeing James receive his Black Belt from his dad makes this moment even more special. It’s a reminder that behind every successful child is the support, encouragement and belief of their family.
James, you’ve shown the attitude, perseverance and character that a Black Belt represents. This isn’t the end of your journey—it’s the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

🥋 Well done to everyone who competed today at the Confidence Cup.
There were some amazing matches throughout the event and the overall standard was extremely high.
We saw:
• Matches won in the very last seconds
• Extra time rounds needed to separate competitors
• Great attitude, effort and sportsmanship across the day
The event flowed so well that we will definitely need TWO areas for the next one 👀
Thank you to all competitors, parents, coaches, officials and supporters who helped make the day a success.
Already looking forward to the next one. 🔥
