All have been by our side helping in every way they can to better the standard of our students.

Again, I am so proud of the newly Black belt students.

This is the first time in 4Way Dojo History that we have had so many grading candidate of 22 going for Black Belt in a single year, with a 100% pass rate!!!

You have all contributed to the success of 4Ways Dojo and a valuable asset to the strength of the academy.

You have done incredibly well.

In spite of this you have accomplished something quite amazing to have lasted so long in this art, unconditionally and lead by an example of good attitude in helping others.

That alone deserves the grade you were promoted to.

Also, I am incredibly honoured and humble to have been doing karate for over 40 years of studying Goju Ryu karate.

However all credit must be said to Sensei Arnold De Beer, Chief Instructor for International Shorei Martial Arts Academy, whom I consider my Father in karate.

Still, I am instructed by him to this current day, as well as my students.

I would like to honour him for all the years he has dedicated to our success as a Goju Ryu instructor.

A BIG THANK YOU Sensei Arnold de Beer.!!!

Also a special thanks goes to our ISMAA’s instructors, Sensei Tony De Beer on the grading panel that have also contributed to our students career.

I am so proud to be affiliated to this organization and its people. 

My wish is that you keep training and never give up the dedication you have shown over the years.

Well done!!

“With gratitude, I respect

Thank you 4Ways Dojo!!!

Yours Sincerely

 Sensei Stef Biagioni
