G'day everyone! I'm new to GKR (sort of) and I thought I'd say hello to all of you out there in the forum.

I live in Melbourne and I started GKR six weeks ago. I actually first trained in GKR almost 10 years ago, but had to give it up due to other commitments.
Now I'm back to have another crack at it!

I had my first full grading last Sunday and am pleased to say that I am now a yellow belt. The grading was pretty full on, but I feel I really earned my 8th kyu.

Next goal: working towards orange tip.

See you 'round!

Kate.

Hiya! and congratsy on getting the yellow belt to

Hi AstroGirl welcome to the site.

What region in Melbourne, as I watched my youngest son grade to yellow last sunday as well.

We are in region 5.

Howdy Kate!

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

I train mainly in Region 5 (sometimes in Region 8), but I had my grading in Region 5.

Hey Kate, welcome!

I too took a long break from GKR (only 5 years though ), but am back training now.

Congrats on the yellow belt.
