🥋 Grading Day Highlights – Higher Grades 🥋

We finish our grading day coverage by recognising our higher-grade students who stepped onto the floor today.

As students progress through the kyu grades, the expectations become greater. Stronger technique, deeper understanding, increased fitness, and the ability to perform under pressure are all required to continue moving forward.

Today’s higher-grade candidates rose to that challenge, demonstrating determination, resilience, and the spirit expected of all students within the club. Their hard work and commitment over many months of training were evident throughout the grading.

Congratulations to everyone who graded today. Enjoy your achievement, continue training hard, and keep striving for the next step on your karate journey.

A huge thank you once again to Matt Price Sensei for his time, expertise, and support throughout the day.

🥋 Grading Day Highlights – Part 2 🥋

Another selection of photos from today’s grading with Matt Price Sensei (7th Dan JKS).

Days like these are a great reminder that karate is about much more than earning a new belt. Every grading represents hours of training, perseverance, discipline, and a commitment to continual improvement.

It was fantastic to see students supporting one another throughout the day, pushing themselves to perform at their very best, and demonstrating the true spirit of Shotokan Karate.

Whether achieving a new grade or gaining valuable experience for the future, every student should be proud of their efforts.
