Grading !

[SolidAir]

Well everybody wish me luck im grading this weekend!

Im doing Seiyunchin for 5th kyu Blue belt.

Already tried to sabotage myself in preparation gave myself an extra 10 push-ups on my knuckles and pulled a muscle in my shoulder lol

Got a sports massage and been icing it so fingers crossed

I wish you luck with your grading...you'll be fine. Just relax, have fun, and let the grading take care of itself.

Good luck! Make sure your instructors know about your injury if they don't already.

Good Luck, Tiger Balm is good for injuries, smells nice too.

100% this. You don't want to make a small injury worse by not telling them and then someone torquing your arm hard.

That being said... Good luck!!! Let us know how it goes

All the best for the grading, if i'm not to late.

Well I'm chuffed to bits passed with flying colours and found out the grading system is a little different than in the dojo so i passed 4th kyu not 5th and was a two hour grading!

Also had very high praise from the examiner and the technical director

Its still blue belt but brown next !

Told the examiner about the injury and he by chance had an operation on the same muscle and works in physiotherapy so lead me through some exercises to do between each kata/application/kumite

Thanks to all the well-wishers
