Helping to bring Master Week 2024 to a close was the anual Dan & Gup Clinic. This is an oppurtunity for Dan and Gup grades to train and learn from all the masters who have come together for Masters Week. Seminar session are available on a range of topics which are either outside the normal WTSDA curriculum offering an oppurtunity to learn something new or designed to enhance and build on what is already learnt.
Training was lead by KCN Strong imparting his decades of knowledge and experience followed by BKCN Khan ensuring everyone was suitably warmed up.
