Grading Schedule
2008 Class Grading Times
All Earth element gradings (From 1st badge to yellow belt) are now to be held at the class venues rather than at the workshops. This will allow ALL participants of the workshop to enjoy the full experience and spend their whole time training. The gradings can then become a formal occasion as has been the case in past times. Students who have been informed by their Sensei that they should grade, will simply attend the next available venue where the appropriate grading is taking place. All of the gradings are to be run by kyoshi level sensei and above.
On the date that a grading is held at your class, all non grading students should find another class to train at. This is to create the formal atmosphere now required for gradings and will give the students the opportunity to attend other classes and train with a different sensei and a wider variety of students.
N.B. Those attempting 3rd badge or Yellow belt will first need to attend a 1st and 2nd badge grading. 2008 Grading Schedule
