Kung Fu Kids Graduate to Martial Arts Junior Black Belt

Kung Fu kids Bradley Norton and Mitchell Butler joined the adult classes in January 2010 after completing their junior black belt assessment on Friday December 11 2009. Master Richard, Si Hing Troy & Si Hing Danny took Bradley and Mitchell through an exhausting 90 minutes examination, with James Klaic assisting. The two boys had to complete set criteria of physically gruelling techniques including the complete cudgel and bare hands routines, essential drills and self defence techniques.

Kung Fu kids junior black belt

Bradley and Mitchell both had a desire to learn Kung Fu, prompting their parents to find an academy at which they could learn Kung Fu. Bradley and Mitchell, now both 13 years old, have been training at the Golden Lion Academy for five and six years respectively. In the endeavour to achieve their Black belt they have been working out a minimum of two times a week under Master Richard on Mondays, Master Richard & Si Hing Troy on Wednesdays and Master Richard and Si Hing Danny Petrecca Saturday mornings. Their Kung Fu training has been at the Berwick centre.

As a junior black belt they will continue their kung fu education from the beginning of Level 1 Adult class. While retaining their junior black belt, they will commence learning all the adult level 1, 2, 3, criteria, and when they have obtained that knowledge of the skill levels required, Bradley and Mitchell will then be eligible to sit for their Level 4 adult belt.

Both are very excited about joining the adult classes, as they will be able to begin learning new weapons and barehand routines and continue their education with self defence applications & sparring. These varying forms and self defence applications have not been available to them in the children classes. When asked what benefits they hope to receive from learning these new skills, there was a unanimous decision that self defence was very important and they both agreed that being able to do advanced Kung Fu techniques would be a “pretty cool” thing to show to their friends.

Congratulations Bradley and Mitchell and good luck in your future training.

Si Hing Troy Dawes, Kung Fu instructor, Berwick
