Grading FAQs

What are Gradings?

Grading's are an important part of every young karateka's journey, where students perform the techniques they've been learning in class to attempt to gain their next grade.

What happens at a grading?

Students will have a one hour training together with members from our other venues, and have a chance to learn from each of our different instructor's/sensei's.

Students will then perform their grading syllabus, which they have been practicing in class each week, receive feedback on their performance and be presented with their achieved grade. 

Can family members watch?

Absolutely, we encourage family members to watch and see what the students have been learning in their classes.
