And these are Bridport's yellow belts

 After showing you our four active black belts at Ichinen Bridport Martial Arts School last month, I would like to introduce you today to our four yellow belts. The yellow belt, also known as 5th Kyu (5th student grade), is the second graduation in our traditional Jiu-Jitsu style here in Bridport. 

Mind you, as time passes, this photo was taken in January of this year, and grades have changed since then. From left, Tiger has left, Mykyta is now 4th Kyu, Adam does his 4th grading next week, and Martha is also 4th Kyu. Students at Ichinen Bridport do their grading regularly when they are ready to do so. The quality of the style and the school must be maintained at a high level. Nobody receives a grade if the performance is not good enough at the time. But no worries, our qualified master under the supervision of master Horst Lindenau guarantees top progress. 

Come and join us. We would like to have beginners, and you can improve your life.> > > New friends, top self-defence skills, healthy martial arts training for body and mind, and... gradings.
