GRADING -6 TAG REQUIREMENTS

Each Junior & Dragon class student (all ages 12 years and under) will need to pass x6 sections before they can participate in a grading. They will be assessed at how well they can perform each aspect of the grading syllabus: Bag work & Fitness- White Tag / Punches- Brown Tag / Kicks- Green & Yellow Tag / Combinations- Red Tag / Self Defence & Sparring- Black Tag / Focus Mitts- Blue Tag. If they can perform the technique unaided, then they will be awarded a tag on their belt. If a student does not have 6 tags prior to a grading they can be assessed in the last 2 weeks of class and at the practice session in the run up to a grading on the remaining tags they are missing. They can also pick up a Tag at the Grading Practice session. So even if a student has 3 tags prior to booking in for a Grading there is still the opportunity to obtain the remaining tags.

If a grading has been booked and the student is unable to gain 6 tags prior to the grading date, then we will refund the grading fee.

Please be aware: Failure to have passed the 6 required tags will result in you not being able to grade on this occasion.
