ineluki Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hi all,I am very close to finish the training hours required for my first grading (40 hours ). My questions are:1. IMHO there is nothing wrong with asking your sensei if he thinks you are ready for your grading... it's all in how you ask 2. Quite frankly if the hours you spent were the only criteria, you should get out of there as quickly as you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sensei8 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hi all,I am very close to finish the training hours required for my first grading (40 hours ). My questions are:1- Shall I ask my Sensei when my grading is or it's better to wait until he tells me ?!2- Is it only the required training hours the determinant for going through grading or your Sensei's opinion in your performance plays a role as well & might delay the grading process ?!Wait until your Sensei tells you!I don't completely follow you on your 2nd question, sorry!! **Proof is on the floor!!!

I 200% agree !If he thinks you're ready he'll ask.Remember, being ready is about more than just knowing and executing the techniques. Among other things it's also about your frame of mind. I'm not saying you're not ready, but rather that your sensei may have his or her reason for pushing you further.
