A sixth place finish at the Euros

Adult black belts competed last Friday evening and then helped judge on the Saturday, when everyone else was in action.

With nearly 900 competitors from all over Europe, the Boston school came joint sixth overall in the school placing.

This is a fantastic result as the school does not focus on tournament but the traditional aspect of the art.

The school is now open five nights a week with a new daytime class starting on Friday’s (1.30pm-3pm).
