HANNAH Clifford has become the first black belt to come out of Mike Rowling’s South West Kickboxing Club.
Chief instructor and 2nd Dan Rowling started the club three years ago and Clifford is his longest-serving member.
She worked hard to achieve all her grades before getting through a five-hour grading session to achieve her 1st Dan.
Clifford trains in Rowling’s Bridport class, while Gareth Taylor runs a South West kickboxing class in Lyme Regis.
