STUDENTS from Mid North Coast Karate at Kew recently undertook their belt gradings, facing a panel of senior instructors to test their skills.
The grading process evaluated the students on their basics and ‘kata’, with those above blue belt also demonstrating their sparring abilities.
All participants successfully advanced to the next level, showcasing their hard work and dedication.
Instructor Sensei Anissa Hilton expressed pride in all her students’ determination and effort.
“I am proud of each and every one of our students who attempted their grading,” she said.
“They all trained extremely hard and gave their all.
“This determination meant that every student was successful in reaching their next colour belt.”
Mid North Coast Karate is part of the Goshin Ryu Karate Association.
The grading was held at Nambucca Heads with fellow Goshin Ryu students.
“It is great to train with fellow like-minded students and also watch their students’ progression,” said Sensei Anissa.
A separate grading was also conducted for students enrolled in the Little Ninja program, designed to introduce students aged three to six to the fundamentals of martial arts.
