World champs success for Stoke Gifford Taekwon-do fighters
“IT CAN’T be done”, “It never really works”, “I got fed up of measuring boring foods”, “I piled all the weight back on”. These are familiar statements made when the dreaded word ‘diet’ is mentioned. Slimmer Clevette thought the same until she was introduced to Herbalife. “Before Herbalife, I was always tired, ready for bed at 8.30pm, irritable and quite overweight. I wanted to lose weight but I didn’t even have the energy to start.” As a result of starting the Herbalife program, Clevette lost one-and-a-half stones, dropping two dress sizes, her skin cleared and her energy rose. The products are all naturally derived, easy to take and the best part is that you can still eat all your favourite foods. What could be simpler? There’s a 30-day

toke Gifford Taekwondo were triumphant at the recent ITF World Championships held in Brighton. Six members of the club were selected to represent Team UK at the Championships, which were held at the end of July. There were over 39 countries participating in the Worlds, from all continents, which totalled to over 500 competitors. William Lambern who lives in Stoke Gifford, performed excellently in his first outing at an international championships against some really superb competition from Ireland and Australia, but was unable to get into a medal position. Esme McCarthy also from Stoke Gifford, came up against some equally tough competition from Canada, Argentina and two Australians in the patterns category but rose to the challenge and was elated to come away with the first place World Champion title! She also had a tough draw in the sparring, as she was moved up to the heavier weight category. She put up a great fight to beat Canada in the first round but was beaten in the next round by Ireland – however this was enough to get her a well deserved bronze. Lucie Robertshaw was also making her international debut
and had a tough decision in her first round patterns draw against Argentina. This did not deter her though, and she went on to put in a fantastic effort against some really mature, tall girls in the special technique division. All her extra practice had paid off and she was rewarded with a well deserved World silver medal for her efforts. Phoebe Grandfield performed some strong patterns in her category and got through one round against Ireland only to be stopped by an Australian. She also put in a solid performance in the power breaking but was unable to do her usual smashing of boards, so did not place in the medals, but gained a huge amount of experience. Callum Brown ,who has just started at SGS College, had a great sparring competition, beating his first opponent from Malaysia. He then put in a really solid performance against the eventual winner from Greece and narrowly lost, but came away with the souvenir of a very bruised nose! No medal but a really super experience for him. Emily Oakes, who lives in Cheshire but travels to Bristol every weekend to train with Stoke Gifford Taekwon-do, had a fantastic competition performing against some tough competition
