Hanshi Riley has been running Katana at the arena and firmly put Middleton on the map as a heartland of quality Jiu-Jitsu. Hanshi is very proud of his achievements at the arena and of the hundreds of students who have trained there. Whilst this is the end of Katana at the arena it is definitely not the end of the club. All students in Middleton will be welcomed with open arms at all Katana clubs, most notably at Castleton Community Centre where additional classes start on the 24th of May. As a club we have had some great times at Middleton Arena, especially with our international classes. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It
is with great regret that due to the current Covid-19 pandemic all
Jiu-Jitsu classes in Middleton and Castleton will be cancelled after tonight's (19/03/20) session. For the time being the Sunday class at
Royton scout hut will be continuing. We have not taken this decision lightly, but the safety of our students, their guardians and our instructors is our highest priority. We have taken this decision in-line
with government and scientific policy. We hope to re-open as soon as possible but as I am sure you will all be aware it is, at the moment,
impossible to say when this will be. I will continue to keep you all updated through this site and our Facebook page. <br />
<br />
I hope that you all stay safe and I look forward to seeing you all again when the worst is behind us.<br />
<br />
Best wishes,<br />

We had a fantastic day on the 5th October at our Autumn black belt gradings and coaching course.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The day started with our junior coaching course where students learnt the importance of health and safety, how to conduct warm-ups, the science behind a warm-up and first aid skills. All our juniors did exceptionally well and fully deserved their awards. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Following directly on from their coaching course our juniors went directly into their gradings. We have come to expect great skill and technique from our students during their gradings and they did not disappoint us. It was a tough afternoon for them all but they did not let us down, they were all fantastic and fully deserving of their new grades. A special mention must go to Reuben Adefoly who was promoted to junior black belt!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
THe afternoon continued into the senior coaching course where duty of care, risk assessment, loco parentis, health and safety, session planning and first aid were all covered. Just like the juniors before them, the seniors passed the course with flying colours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We continued straight into their 1st Dan gradings where our three candidates were certainly made to work hard- there was not a dry Gi in the dojo! They all proved themselves more than worthy of a black belt, showing dedication, commitment and skill. Congratulations to Dennis, Patrick and Andy from all of us at Katana.</div>

In her debut competition, our very own Carys Williams won gold at the AMA National competition in Bury this weekend. It was a fantastic competition with experienced competitors from all over the country but it was Carys who came out on top with her sensational kata.

We had a fantastic day last Saturday at our black belt gradings. We have come to expect excellence at Katana Jiu-Jitsu Clubs and once again we were not dissapointed. A huge degree of technical skill was shown, everyone gave it their all and everyone passed theirgradings with flying colours. You can all be very proud of yourselves as all of Katana is proud of you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A special congratulations goes out to all our new junior black belts; Grace, Jessica, Joshua, Declan, Zac and Jay.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also saw Sensei Karen put in a spectacular performance to earn her third Dan and Sensei Mark working extermly hard to earn his coverted red jacket and 6th Dan.<br />
