Introducing our new Black Belts
⭐️⭐️ Rodaina Aly-Eid ⭐️⭐️
Rodaina joined Hicks Family Martial Arts in 2021, aged just seven. A shy young girl at first, she has flourished over the past five years, growing in confidence, ability and belief in herself. She gives 100% to everything she does and has achieved success both on and off the mats.
A dedicated student and positive role model, Rodaina is also a valued member of our STORM Team, helping out in classes twice a week. She’s a popular part of our school community and has made many friends along the way.
Every training session, technique, correction and challenge has helped bring her to this moment. A black belt represents far more than martial arts skill—it reflects focus, resilience, confidence and the determination to keep going.
Rodaina, it has been a pleasure watching you grow and seeing your skills develop. You’ve worked incredibly hard for this achievement, so wear your belt with pride!
And this is only the beginning: we know you’re already working towards your stars and First Dan. New goals, new challenges and an exciting next chapter await!
