See you again, Aziz!

This week, Kreation bids goodbye to Aziz as he embarks on his travelling til 2010.

Since joining our club 2 years ago, Aziz has been a real asset. Always a tough, helpful and diligent training partner, Aziz's skills have grown leaps and bounds. One who doesn't shy from competitions, it was at one of the local tournaments that Aziz received his blue belt from Cristiano, after a dominant showing.

While it's sad to see him leave, we wish him all the best in the coming months, travelling and training. And good luck on your next tournament at Manila!

Til we meet again, buddy!


Aziz's last training with us til we see him again in January. (Basically this means we tortured him)

Goofing for the camera as always!

Morten gets his blue!`

Last saturday marked the next chapter of Morten's Jiu-Jitsu pursuit as he received his blue belt promotion from Cristiano. In good kreation tradition, Morten was put through a gauntlet as he grappled with everyone in class, one after another, and finally getting his legs tied together by the brand new belt.

Morten has been training for a whilte. A belt promotion is not about the time you've trained, but rather, the standard you've achieved.

Congratulations!!!
