Huge congratulations to Ewan Menzies on achieving his 1st Dan Black Belt at today’s JudoScotland grading! 🥋
He not only passed his theory but also earned the final points needed to secure his black belt — an incredible milestone and so well deserved. All the hard work, dedication, and countless hours on the mat have truly paid off.
Well done Ewan — what an amazing achievement!
