Best Mon-grading ever! (… in our club)

Featured

On thursday, february 16th. our club experienced the unexpected event of a Mon-grading of the first degree 😋.

Hans Mathias Myrvoll was surprisingly asked by Erik Vanem to get his first degree in aikido. He was assisted by another newcomer, Daniel Myrseth and they both did quite well.
