I believe that Richard Briscoe has decided to close his Taekwon do schools at Kenton and Gosforth.  I would like to accomodate as many of his students as I can into Newcastle Blackbelt Academy. I would appreciate it if any students or parents of students could give me a ring if they wish to train with NBA, so I can make suitable arrangements. You can contact me free on 0800 0730804.

Mr Mckenna

The last session of 2011 was Saturday 17th december. Classes start again on Saturday 7th January. Have a great Christmas everyone  – stay healthy!
