Massive congratulations to Debbie Kessel for passing her most recent grading. Grandmaster Teh himself has presented Debbie with her certificate on Sunday, to mark this wonderful occasion. Debbie delivered a great performance at the grading and has now been promoted to 3rd Ji - Blue Belt / Red Tags. We're looking forward to seeing her working towards her Red Belt. Congratulations!

What a wonderful and an emotional occasion we've had yesterday. Last night was Maggie Hamilton’s last training session before she spreads her wings and jets off to conquer Australia! Maggie has been a Tukido student since 1999. In 2009 she had to take a break from training to focus on her work with the Scottish Police Force shortly after attaining her 1st Ji Red Belt. 10 years later Maggie was finally able to rejoin Tukido and worked hard since to complete her training toward the Black Belt, which she has earned last year!

Yesterday’s occasion was marked by speeches made by a few of the instructors as well as a guest appearance by Master William Davie, who was a massive part of Maggie's training in the earlier years. Grandmaster Teh himself has presented Maggie with a commemorative plaque as a celebration of her Tukido achievements and a reminder that Tukido family is always there for her!

Maggie’s energy, indomitable spirit, hard work, determination and a great smile will massively be missed, and we all wish her the absolute best in this new and exciting chapter!

A festive session at Glasgow Tukido Club to mark the end of the year! 👏👏

What an incredible occasion! Last Sunday (19th November 2023) Grandmaster Teh has presented three students with their first Black Belts and Grading Certificates to celebrate this important milestone in their Tukido journey.

Maggie Hamilton (of the Kirkintilloch Tukido Club), Glenda Williams and Sean Noak (of the Motherwell Tukido Club) have all worked hard to attain 1st Dan Black Belts. It's been an absolute pleasure watching these fantastic individuals putting the full effort into their training this year, whilst working towards this goal. What an achievement! Massive congratulations to Maggie, Glenda and Sean! 🥳🥳🥳

Today, following a successful grading, two of our very own students have been presented with their Grading Certificates by one of the club's instructors Mrs Monika B. Hutcheson. Stephen Abbot has been promoted to 6th Ji - Green Belt, and Angus McMillan has been promoted to 5th Ji (Blue Tags). Massive congratulation to both and we're looking forward to seeing the next stages of their Tukido journey! 🥊
