On Saturday the Gracie Barra Cape Town crew had a busy morning. The kiddies had a grading, we had two black belts on the mat, and there was just too much fun to be had.
We would like to thank Jacques Portelli and Chris Cecchi for the rolls and all the parents who were present for the grading. If you would like to find out more about our kids classes or the various classes we offer, then send us a message 💪
