Sempai Ellie Murphy and Sempai Matt Bolt, instructors at Southfields-based Wimbledon Karate Jutsu Kai Club, have achieved the grade of second Dan black belt after a week-long training camp in Sonderborg, Denmark, which ended with a gruelling 40 continuous fights.

Murphy went on to win the senior women’s event at the German Open IBK Knockdown Karate Tournament in Berlin on September, winning all her fights despite competing in a higher weight category.

The club runs a children’s class at St Abermarle Primary School each Tuesday (6.30-7.30pm) and launches an adult class at the same venue on Tuesday, October 5 (7.45-9pm).
