What Do I Need To bring to Grade?
I

What Is The Pre-Grade Class For?
I
We teach a childrens karate class on the day of the grading. This is a specialist class for children who already have 3 blue stripes on their belt or children who are very close to grade and need a final stripe. The classes are aimed solely at giving our students extra practice on their grade work an hour before the grading begins
I
This class has many benifits. Aswell as being a refresher on all grade work for the students, it also includes work on breathing, strength, focus etc. Other benifits include: last minute answers to any questions the student has regarding their grade work and an extra confidence boost to shake off any nerves. All very important for achieving a good pass mark
I
There is no need to pre book for this lesson just come along on the day. The class cost is £4.00 also payable on the day
