Lisa Chapman
Lisa Chapman is a 2nd Kyu Blue Belt Lisa has been assisting with junior classes for many years. She started judo at about 3years old and was the youngest juvenile black belt ever awarded, after a break in judo she has now returned and is working towards her black belt.

Other young members of the club often come along to the beginner’s classes to help and encourage the new members, this helps both the beginners and the higher grades and we encourage any that would like to help.
