Umina Dojo News
Our National Training and Grading weekend at the end of November was another huge success enjoyed by all. This one was particularly special for Umina as we had our first native Uminan grade to shodan (first black belt). Well done Lian, who knocked it out of the park!
Also congratulations to Rebeka and Robbie for their promotion to Jun Shidoin.
This was following a grading on the 8th November where Amelia and Nic both graded to 1st kyu (brown belt).
Looking ahead, May of 2026 will mark our tenth year at Umina PCYC!
