Karate Gradings

Karate gradings always inspire! It doesn’t matter whether the participants are young or old, if it's their first grading from white belt, or a dan grading of a black belt. Gradings are a demonstration of physical prowess, constructed from focus, dedication, and grit.

Here are a few photos from our recent gradings

I love Karate Gradings! There is something about watching people strive to be their best that is absolutely inspiring! If there are two kyu belt gradings I love more than any other, it would have to be white belt gradings, and those grading to brown. Friday night we got both of those and more. It was a great night!
