What an amazing weekend training on the beach and in the glorious ocean at Croyde Bay. There's nothing quite like it!

Great to take our training outdoors and feel the earth beneath our feet.
Appreciative of the Victoria Park war memorial for the shaded practice area

A fantastic seminar at Hwang Yong training with Master Han all the way from South Korea. First seminar for much of Cheong Yong, and I don't think there can be a much better induction to the wider UKHGA community.

And that's a great end to a great year for Cheong Yong. So much so that it's our last class in this hall. After tripling in size, we will be moving to a new venue next year to keep the good times rolling!

A great time beach training with the whole UKHGA family. Though we do tend to stand out a bit amongst all the swimsuits and bodyboards!
