Fitness instructor gets her yellow belt
Diedré Lazenby recently graded to yellow belt at the Shin-gi-tai Karate Academy.
Nine years ago, Lazenby started Shape Up Fitness for Women with an emphasis on Tae Bo training. Two years ago, she started training ladies in Verwoerdpark.
Here she met sensei Llewellyn Oosthuizen. They agreed he would show the ladies who were interested in some self-defence techniques before they started their fitness training.
Lazenby has always been interested in martial arts. She started coming in earlier on training nights to train with Oosthuizen and two of his black belt instructors, who started teaching her karate. She successfully completed her yellow belt grading on November 23.
Ladies who are interested in joining Lazenby’s fitness classes can contact her on 073 218 7208.
Adults who are interested in fitness and self-defence through karate can contact Oosthuizen on 082 464 4912.
