My son was never sporty so when three years ago he came home from school wanting to try it I was sceptical.
2.5 years later he has raced through the belts and is working towards his black stripe belt.
He’s in a national competition in a week or so in Basingstoke and he loves it.
Been a great sport for him and has helped his confidence no end. The discipline in the sport is terrific too.
