Awesome job by Sofia our student of the month for May 2025.

Very well deserved. 

I have really been looking forward to presenting this award. 

 

Over the past few months this young lady has been in a different league with her continued effort and improvement and thoroughly deserves this award.

Sofia earned this award for excellent all round progress.

I am very pleased that Sofia is training at my club she is really enjoying the black belt journey. 

At her last grading before Christmas Sofia graded at a very high standard earning her Green belt. After passing her Green belt this meant she was eligible to join our senior class. Since joining that class the results over the past 6 months have been absolutely phenomenal.

Sofia graded tonight for the first tag on her Green belt and was absolutely outstanding, she smashed it out of the park. No mistakes. Everyone got to see a masterclass performance from this young lady.

Don’t let her small stature fool you. She has dynamite in both fists and feet and is like a mini assasin. Unlimited cardio, fantastic flexibility and movement, she has it all in abundance.

Her sparring was awesome tonight too, even against more than one opponent at the same time.

I may also add that she is the only student in her rank. Sofia has no qualms grading in front of a big audience up on her own, she thrives on pressure.

The effort this young lady puts in every week is testament to what I tell the students each week. “You only get out what you put in. Your level of effort will equal your level of results”.

This young lady has certainly been putting the effort in and is rightly reaping the rewards for all her hard work.

Sofia makes my job very very easy as she is so easy to teach. I can explain something and show her once and she just gets it. Sofia will copy exactly what has just been shown and will execute the moves with precision every single time, she really is the perfect student.

There is no limit to how far Sofia can go. It’s very exciting times for our club and me as an instructor to have a student so talented. At the moment the learning curve she is on is unbelievable and she has truly become a fantastic practitioner. 

For someone so young to remember everything and move the way she does is amazing. 

You know the saying “Born to do it”. Well, Sofia clearly was.

Sometimes students don't realise how far they have come on their journey and cannot see for themselves the progress they are making and it's nice to show them and let them know all their effort and progress is not going unnoticed.

Sofia is definitely on the right path and is one to watch and destined for great things at our club.

I am very much looking forward to seeing how Sofia progresses over the coming months and teaching her on her black belt journey.

Keep up the great work Sofia. It is an honour to teach you and share the Dojang with you. Keep doing what you are doing. I am very very proud of you young lady. 

We had our club grading tonight. Everyone performed at a very good standard and all gave 100% effort. The sparring was awesome, we have some very talented students at our club. 

A massive well done to you all. You made me and your parents very proud.

A big thank you to our expert photographer for the night Jenny Low pics are fantastic and will be up on here tomorrow night.

Someone will receive a student of the week award next class.

Keep up the great work everyone. 

Soo Bahk !!!
