02Grown in the club

Many of our instructors started as beginners here.

Many of the assistant instructors at WSKF Perth have trained under Grant Rollinson from their earliest beginnings and now teach as black belts. Grant runs the club with his wife, Sheela Rollinson, one of the 3rd Dan instructors above.

Each new belt brings new challenges, and the belt system breaks a long goal into smaller steps.
