Martial Arts Successes For Chinnor Club – By Duncan Elliott

CONGRATULATIONS to the successful students who passed
their gradng at the weekend, May 27, at chinnor village hall.
Jad Salaam took his purple belt and Merrell Vaughan
took her brown belt in Kung Fu, the Lau Gar syllabus which incorporates sparring (kickboxing).
Both students showed excellent technical skill in
the performance of the set movements and the kicking
drills.
Both were required to defend against knife attack and
for her brown belt, Merrell had to show her skill at stick and staff defence.
The sparring was particularly impressive, Jad showing good control and placement of his techniques while Merrell showed good movement and combinations.
The grading ended with Merrell breaking a board with
a sidekick.
A very good standard has been achieved through hard
work and perserverance.
