FOUR members of the Matt Fiddes Martial Arts School excelled at their recent panel gradings.

Tom Charlton and Sam Ray both became deputy black belts while Dustin Gunning-Cole and Luke Hatherall picked up their red belts.

Coach Giles Richards said: “All four have been part of the classes in Weymouth for three or four years now and are progressing well with Sam and Tom preparing to go for their first degree black belts at the end of the year.

“We hold classes on Wednesdays and Fridays at Holy Trinity Primary School for all ages and abilities from three years and up.
