In order to grade you must have completed the minimum training requirements and be confident that you know the technical requirements in the syllabus. If you are in doubt about your ability to grade please ask your Sensei or Sempai.

Please turn up for the grading at least 30 minutes before to give you enough time to warm up.

All students grading should be wearing an Association Gi (suit) with the association calligraphy on the chest area. To purchase a Gi please ask your Sensei or Sempai. Your Gi should be clean and neatly pressed. Girls/Women should where a (white) T-shirt under your Gi and boys should be bare chested. All jewellery should be removed.

 To purchase a Gi please ask your Sensei or club instructor.

All candidates will be notified of their grading result by your Sensei or Sempai. This is usually within 1-2 weeks.
