We hold 6 gradings a year for students taking Purple belts and below. All full coloured belts are tested for the Darlington Academy (Banks Road DL1 1YA), with provisional belts (half belts), these assessments take place in your regular training session the week before the grading date, belts are usually presented the following week in the class.
Once a student receives their Green belt the timing between belts spaces out to every other grading. Students taking Brown belts need to wait a minimum time of 6 months between belts.
So for example a student taking there Red belt In February:
January
February - Red Belt
March
April - Provisional Yellow
May
June - Yellow Belt
July
August - Provisional Orange
September
October - Orange Belt
November
December - Provisional Green
January
February - Green Belt
March
April - Miss Grading
May
June - Provisional Blue
July
August - Miss Grading
September
October - Blue Belt
This would be a best case scenario, things happen and students miss gradings for whatever reasons (on holiday, Illness) and are moved to the next one.
We would expect most students to move through the lower belts no problem, when you reach Green belt there are certain expectations for gradings.
You’re put on the grading list because we think you’re ready for that belt, this goes on your progression in class, attitude and the standard you set to yourself and example you set to other students.
You can always be taken off a grading if we think you’re not ready for one reason or another. The grading in meant to be a positive experience and failing someone is not what we want to do. If you’re turning up for class, working hard and staying focused you just need to prove this to us and yourself on the day you’re ready for that belt and one step closer to the Black belt.
Other than your Red belt this is the most important belt you will take and just the beginning. The easy bit is getting the Black belt the hard bit is keeping it after you get it.
This give’s you a brief description on how to get started with the belts. If you have any other questions please ask.
