Gradings - Summer 2021

Fantastic, busy weekend of gradings on the 12th/13th June, as we held our first gradings since December 2020, in both Kickboxing and Karate. With many students demonstrating commitment and progress on their return from online back to face-to-face training, it was right that they were given an opportunity to progress in their belt rank. This included a number of those going for their 1st Dan Black Belt in karate also, having not been able to do so recently due to the pandemic and restrictions. While some restrictions are of course still in place, we were able to hold a more "normal" gradings this time around, and those going for Black Belt were really put through their paces, as well as everyone else at a level relative to their grade.

All in all, over 100 students graded over the course of the weekend, with five achieving 1st Dan, and one achieving a 2nd Dan.

Well done to everyone, including our fantastic coaching team both helping and grading themselves! We are one big FMMAA family, and it really showed with the progress demonstrated and achievements earned!
