ITF Luxembourg invited Master Frank Vanberghen to conduct the first dangrading ever in Luxembourg.

On Saturday August 14th president of ITF Luxembourg Hardy Viktor trained hard, for more than 5 hours, with Master Vanberghen and Annick Van Driessche in preparation of his grading III°degree of the next morning.

Sunday August 15th Hardy was the first person to do dangrading in this small country. He was promoted to III°degree in the sportscenter of Troisvierges by Master Vanberghen, after performing 4 tuls, sambo-ibo-ilbo matsogi, hosinsul, free sparring, some breaking techniques and theory.

This is a huge step for the young federation, which is already recognized by the FLAM (Fédération Luxembourgoise des Arts Martiaux) and thus the national IOC.
