🥋 ASK SIFU

With grading day getting closer, we asked Sifu:

"How should I prepare for my grading?”

The answer? Keep training, keep practising and don't be afraid to ask questions. 👊

And remember, grading isn't about being perfect - it's about showing what you've learnt, giving your best and continuing to grow.

📅 26th September

Good luck to everyone preparing for their grading! ❤️🖤

🥋 MYTH vs FACT

One of the biggest worries parents have is whether their shy or quiet child will feel comfortable in a martial arts class.

The truth? They don’t need to walk through the door feeling confident. ❤️🖤

Jado is a place where confidence can grow step by step, at their own pace - alongside discipline, resilience and self-belief.

Sometimes the quietest person in the room just needs the right environment to find their voice. 🥋

🥋 GRADING 101

If you're new to Jado, you might be wonderinG... what actually happens at a grading?

Grading is an opportunity for our students to put their training into practice, demonstrate what they've learnt and take the next step in their Jado journey.

But it's about much more than learning techniques. We want our students to develop confidence, discipline, focus, respect and resilience along the way. ❤️🖤

📅 Our next grading is 27 September

Further details will be sent to students and parents by email.

Keep training. Keep practicing. Keep believing in yourself. 👊

Life Outside Jado 🥋🏒

From the kwoon to the rink!

When I’m not teaching Jado, I love spending time with my family - and that sometimes means heading to watch some hockey! 🏒

We were back at the rink for the first Coventry Blaze game of the season, and it was great to be there together. 🧡💜

What does your life outside your sport look like? 👇
