Just a few words to thank you all for your wonderful support throughout 2019. It’s been a phenomenally successful year starting by the opening of our first satellite school at Southgate School. Enfield CKD schools now has 77 active members! 😊👏 I would also like to say a special thank you to the Head Instructor Team, who not only work tirelessly in class, but also in the background preparing for our classes and supporting me. Thank you Mr Mistry, Mr Bunch, Mrs Tailor, Mr Reece Tailor, Miss Malia Tailor and Miss Sofia Tailor🧚♀️. Plus a thank you to the Assistant Instructor Team who continue to help and support us. Looking forward to making 2020 another great year! Pil Seung! 🙏🏼

Changes to Colour Belt Testing Day
All testings for colour belts will now take place on a Sunday. There are a number of reasons. Firstly traffic in the evenings around Turkey St makes it very difficult for students and judges to arrive on time. Secondly the size of our school has increased to a point that for this testing in November we needed to split it into 3 sessions. This makes it a very late night for all who took part.
Please go to our calendar page in the members section of our website and follow the instructions to added the subscription calendar to your phone.

Changes to Minimum Classes for Colour Belt Grades
A students eligibility to test depends on the senior leadership team’s view on whether the student knows their syllabus as well as the number of classes that they have attended. Going forward there will be increased focus on ensuring that each student is able to perform the basics correctly and hence we are allowing more time whilst the student is a Jul to perfect their techniques. The number of classes needed is listed below:
Jul to Jang- min 14 classes Jang to next rank – min 7 classes

Teach a warm up. Be competent in all their syllabus up to their current rank. Able to recite junior promise and principles. In addition, students will be expected to:
Regularly assist in class. Assist in gradings. Show the good mannerisms of a Martial Artist.

Electronic NAKMAS Form
Over the coming months we intend to introduce an online form for completing the annual NAKMAS Insurance application. The online form will generate a PDF which each student will receive by email. This needs to be signed and returned to Mr Tailor or any of his team during a class or scanned and emailed to info@enfieldckd.co.uk. If you don't have a printer then please let one of the instructors know.
Referral Program
Don’t forget to join our referral program! For every new student that joins through your recommendation you get a FREE grading! Please let me know if you want any leaflets. Pil Seung!
