Sensei Wendy Llewellyn Retires After Two Decades of Dedication to Poole Ju Jitsu Club

In a heartfelt farewell to a remarkable era, Sensei Wendy Llewellyn has officially retired from her role at Poole Ju Jitsu Club, marking more than 20 years of steadfast commitment. Serving as the Child Welfare Officer and Assistant Instructor, Sensei Wendy has been an integral part of the club’s growth and success.

Wendy’s journey at the club began as a supportive parent, bringing her daughter to the club. Witnessing her daughter’s progression to an impressive 2nd Dan, Wendy’s own martial arts journey unfolded. Achieving a 1st Dan herself, she seamlessly transitioned from a dedicated parent to an influential figure within the club.

Throughout her years with us, Sensei Wendy has given her time freely on the mat, supporting students to achieve their goals. As an Assistant Instructor, Sensei Wendy’s guidance and expertise have played a pivotal role in shaping the skills and character of countless students, young and old alike. In addition, in her role as Child Welfare Officer she has been dedicated to the well-being and safety of the young practitioners, fostering an environment where every member felt supported and valued.

Reflecting on her retirement, Sensei Wendy expressed gratitude for the enriching experiences and lifelong connections she forged at Poole Ju Jitsu Club. She emphasised the joy of witnessing both children and adults grow not just as martial artists but as individuals with enhanced discipline and resilience.

Sensei Wendy’s last training session saw club members past and present come to show their thanks and to wish her well. The atmosphere was filled with gratitude and admiration as she was presented with tokens of appreciation for her contributions to the club.

As Sensei Wendy embarks on a new chapter, Poole Ju Jitsu Club remains indebted to her for over two decades of unwavering dedication, leaving an indomitable imprint on the hearts of those she mentored and inspired.
