Father and daughter Dez and Annalise Tinkler travelled to Batley in Yorkshire to attempt a Second Dan Grading which they passed with flying colours. It was a long three hours of pain and sweat as they battled as both were carrying hip injuries. “It was a great feeling when it finished but a nail-biting wait to see if we had passed.” said Dez. They took a well earned rest over Christmas before back to full training in the new year.
