With any business growth it is essential to keep assessing the leadership team and the delivery of the service to keep it at its peak and deliver the quality classes for growth and development of the students. It's also important to recognise the development, growth and abilities of members as they progress through the ranks and reach Black Belt status. To this end I am pleased and excited to announce that we are expanding our instructor team at Warwick-TKD and have appointed Mr John Hoult and Mrs Rachel Hoult as Assistant Instructors.
A huge congratulations to two of our Warwick-TKD members who took their 1st degree black belt gradings last weekend.
I am very pleased and proud to announce that after a lot of hard work and exceptional dedication to the art both Mr Harry Hoult and Mr Richard Scannell were promoted to 1st degree black belt.
Thank you from all the instructors and students for representing the club at a high standard and achieving this accolade that so many other students that start the art fail to achieve.
