Grading Preparation
Make sure that you learn the theory under the heading of your current kup/belt NOT the belt you are grading for e.g If you are a yellow belt grading to green stripe, please learn the yellow belt theory.
​
However, make sure to be prepared for 2-3 questions from previous belts as the syllabus is accumulative.
​
Be ready to demonstrate the techniques learnt for your grade e.g if you have learnt a side kick as a part of your grade syllabus, your grading examiner may ask you demonstrate it to check for correct application, correct tool and correct chamber position.

Which hand is your jab hand and which hand is your cross hand?
Which ever leg is in front, the hand on the same side is your jab hand e.g. if your left leg is forward in your fighting stance your left hand is your jab hand, if your right leg is forward your right hand is your jab hand.
Juniors can "show rather than tell" if needed (We need to see they understand rather than test how articulate they are)
