The following senior grading syllabus is structured for all candidates going from red belt to white belt. The grading requirements are divided into three sections: 1 mon - stage one, 2 mon - stage two and 3 mon - stage 3.
The syllabus is designed so that the student works in conjunction with teacher working together on a three tier structured induction course. Both instructor and student must sign each level of examination; this will provide evidence that the student and teacher have covered the necessary grading requirements.
