Pensioners become two of the oldest people to achieve black belts in karate
Meet the pair of pensioners who have become two of the oldest people in Britain to achieve black belts - in KARATE. Sprightly Sheila Stewart, 72, and Isabel Murray, 77, took up the sport in 2015 when Sheila began taking her grandchildren to classes. The fighting fit duo- both from Dalgety Bay, Fife - went through twelve grades from white belt, before being awarded their coveted black belts. Under the guidance of fifth dan instructor Sarah Queen, who created a class for the pair to develop their skills, they have now achieved one of the highest ranks in the martial art. The pensioners reached the rank on November 16 after four years of honing their fighting techniques at the Japan Karate Shoto Federation (JKS) Scotland headquarters in Dunfermline, Fife.
