What You’ll Learn

TRADITIONAL BELT GRADINGS

When Gradings Happen

Gradings take place throughout the year and are offered when your coach feels you’re ready. There’s no pressure and no fixed deadlines — progress is based on consistency and confidence.

✔ What We Assess

Every grading is marked on six key areas: Fitness, Power, Speed, Accuracy, Effort and Attitude. These qualities matter more than perfection — we’re looking for improvement and commitment.

✔ What You’ll Be Asked To Do

You’ll demonstrate techniques from your syllabus, including striking, movement, padwork, blocking and basic self‑defence. You’ll also complete a short fitness section appropriate to your grade.

✔ How Long It Takes To Progress

Most students grade every 3–6 months depending on attendance, effort and confidence. Higher belts naturally take longer as the skills become more advanced.

✔ Supportive, Not Intimidating

Gradings are friendly, structured and encouraging. Your coach guides you through the process, and you’ll always know exactly what’s expected before you step onto the floor.
