Garrin Davidson - 14 August 2008

In July Garrin Davidson of Broadfield East Junior School entered a talent show at the school, where over 100 pupils entered their talents. Among the talents there were singers, comedy acts, dancers and then there was Garrin. Garrin attends C.B.B.A and performed a Bow Kata to music. Out of these 100 or so pupils they were whittled down to just12. Garrin was one of the 12 pupils to go up for the title "Broadfield East Has Got Talent" These 12 pupils were judged by the rest of the schools pupils. Garrin was so impressive and won hands down.
Garrin then performed his Kata at the fun day in front of the staff, pupils and the public who had come to enjoy the day. He got a standing ovation for his performance.
Garrin has been attending C.B.B.A for nearly 2 years and will be going for his brown belt in September. He said.
"I would encourage any child to take up this activity because it's fun. It is a discipline sport and shows you how to respect yourself and others. Also it makes you more confident in life. I have also made a lot of new friends since going to C.B.B.A I have gone to competitions with the club, run by Sensei Wayne and Sensei Sue and won lots of trophies which has also boosted my confidence. This sport is not bout fighting it is about self defence, discipline, building self esteem and also your confidence. It is a great place to spend your free time."
