Formally called the Pre-Grading Course, this day is renamed to the WINTER COURSE to be consistent with our SPRING, SUMMER and AUTUMN courses.

Irrespective of name change, this Course will follow the same format established over the last few years with a very similar set-up and Timetable.

All students (of all ages and grades) are welcome. You must hold a current Ishinryu licence and wear a Gi with the Ishinryu badges.

One aim of this course is to assess those planning to take a General Grading on December 5th.  By the end of this course we expect to have a definitive list of those planning to grade, as nominated by your club instructor.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Attendance at this course counts towards your eligibility to Grade to green belt and above at a General Grading.  You MUST attend at least 3 Course days in the 12 months leading up to your grading (with full attendance at the Summer Course counting as 2 days).  If in any doubt as to your eligibility to grade, please talk to your club instructor.
