Four members of Chichester Aikido Club are celebrating following their recent grading.

Rob Davies and Matt Thompson, awarded their first dan black belt, and Amanda Weaver and Graeme King, awarded their second dan, achieved the grades after years of practising in the martial art.

These were awarded by Michael Narey (eighth dan chief instructor of the National Aikido Federation), Michael Hurley (fifth dan chief instructor) and Scott Luckham (third dan senior instructor of Chichester Aikido Club).
