Red J Posted December 18, 2004 Posted December 18, 2004 Time to step up and get it done. Good luck, I'm sure you are well prepared. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.
Ant Posted December 18, 2004 Author Posted December 18, 2004 I felt I performed no where near my best, however I was asked to double grade. Not knowing the Kata meant I didn't I'm in no rush it's only another 3 months. Orpington Shotokan Karate Club

aefibird Posted December 19, 2004 Posted December 19, 2004 Well, congratulations on being asked to double grade! I'm sure that if you work hard you'll get that next grade in 3 months.

senna_trem Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 We have grading at the end of january... so double grading is grading for two kyus at a time? "I think therefore I am" Rene Descartes
aefibird Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Good luck Cobosan! I hope that you pass. senna_trem, double grading is going for 2 grades (usually only kyu grades, not dan grades) at one time. For example, a person might be a 7th kyu, but if they do well on their testing they would be asked to test for 5th kyu straightaway or be automatically promoted to 5th kyu instead of 6th kyu.
