Gradings

Taekwondo gradings and progression

Students progress through belts when they are ready. The aim is steady development, not rushing everyone through at the same pace.

Readiness matters

Not everyone grades every time

That is normal. Students may need more time on a grade, and we talk about it carefully because needing more time is not a failure.

Checks before invitations

Pre-gradings or readiness checks can happen before students are invited to grade.
