Grading Test - Whole Dojo

REGISTRATIONS CLOSE - Wednesday, 25th of May - NO LATE ENTRIES

We're excited to announce our first Grading Test, for 2022.

And, now that many of the COVID restrictions have been eased; we are returning to the 'Whole Dojo' Grading Test format, that we had in the past - all on one day.

Please pay attention to your category's schedule - plan to be early - plan to stay a while, afterward (to watch).

Special Note: Brown & Black Belt Test, at 3:00pm - ALL Brown Belts and Black Belts are obligated to attend - even if you're not being assessed.

Participating, but not being assessed DOES NOT REQUIRE A TICKET.
