Kyu Grading / Brown Belt Grading Report.
March saw the Welsh Bushi- Kai conduct two Gradings for our students.
Firstly, on Sun March 5th, we held our first Kyu Grading of the year at Cwrt Herbert in Neath. Students were put through a final preparation session before being separated into their individual grading groups.
In addition, a training course was held for Purple/Brown belts, which was very well attended. Congratulations to everyone who successfully graded and well done to those who attended the senior course .
Secondly, on Sat March 18th, at our Cwmafan Dojo, a Brown Belt Course and Grading took Place. After a very gruelling pre-grade run through, the students were split into their 3 grading groups ready for grading. the grading panel for each group was Jordan Hopkins 3rd Dan, Mark Coleman 4th Dan & Dave Jowett 4th Dan.
Just to add that little bit of extra pressure, our Senior Dan Grade Panel (Percy Brown, Nigel Taylor and Paul Bridge) were positioned around the hall overseeing all the action!
Very well done to all those who were successful in passing your Brown Belt grades.
