I knew this was coming as but completely forgot to follow it up. So I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Richard Wood on receiving his Blue Belt from John Will late last year.

As you know Richard was a regular at GSW for many months and I would like to think that we had a big influence on his gaining his Blue, Richard is the man responsible for our updated GSW logo.

You can see some of Richards’s real passion, Photography at his site:

Congratulations Richard, and we look forward to seeing you in Welly for you traditional new Blue crush. :) Also congrats to Richards training partner Damian who also received his Blue from John. Well done guys and well done to Shayne.
