nullThe 12-year-old actress, who shot to fame this year after appearing in the Netflix series, was pictured today receiving a stripe on her white belt at a gym in Bournemouth, United Kingdom. 

Brown rose to fame in Stranger Things playing a mysterious young girl with a shaved head known only as '11'.

Released on Netflix, the ten-part series become a surprise hit and propelled the many unknown child actors to fame.
