Black belt trial grading recap

On Sunday Crow Martial Arts hosted the famous Black belt grading. Crow students as well as our friends from the Northern Dragons were tested for their skills, fitness and sparring quality. For the Crow students this day was trial grading to assess their skills and an opportunity to spar different fighters from another club.

After an intense two hour training session Master Craig and Master Rick were happy with the techniques they saw and the effort shown by the participating students. 

We congratulate all students for making the next step towards a higher belt.

Grading recap day 1

Yesterday our first group of Junior students went for grading. All students showed great effort in demonstrating their skills. In the end Master Craig was happy to announce that all students passed. They are now one step closer on their journey to Black Belt. Congratulations to all students.

In addition our Junior and Senior CrowMax students (Black Belts and Cho Dan Bo's) had their trial grading. Students were tested in many different areas ranging from technical skills and combinations to self-defence, forms and board breaking. All students showed a good level of skill and improvement in key aspects of their technique. We look forward to helping them achieve the next level in becoming a true Master of Martial Arts.

Good luck to all students who go into their grading tomorrow.
