Washinkai Karate Espana

A normal kyu grading will involve an initial lesson, to warm up and run through grading techniques.

During the grading itself, the student will be instructed by the grading examiner to perform the techniques set down in the syllabus for the grade the student is taking.

Kihon will be examined first, followed by pairs and then kata. Jiyu kumite will come last and is compulsory for all students taking gradings of 6th kyu and above except students aged eleven years or below, or forty or above, for whom it is optional.

Not all these headings will always be examined for a grade. For example, kata is not examined until 7th kyu.
