Black Belt Grading

Another gruelling Black belt Grading examination. on June 4th, Tina Gosai attempted her Black belt Grading. After years of training, the day of reckoning was upon her - A 6 hour test of mind, body and soul. Through dedication, Tina and her grading partner (Rie Woolaway) spent hours during and after class going through each belt making sure that each element was mastered and down to a fine art. The run up to her Black Belt Grading saw Tina take on extra fitness classes, private classes and even personal exercise/dietary program to make sure her body was ready. After having numurous operations to deal with compartment syndrom, Tina battled on and even during the examination, her calves tightened up drastically causing her anguish. She now bears the bruises on her calves to prove it along with a torn hamstring (that she did 2 weeks beforehand).
