Black Belt Grading 2021
The Black Belt Grading was held this week at the U of M Dojo. All members of the Grading Committee were present and eighteen candidates were tested on all the basics and on the Katas appropriate to their levels. I am happy to report that everyone tested passed and we now have 11 new shodans, 5 new nidans and two new sandans. It was the largest group to be graded in my memory and they, and their Senseis, all deserve a hearty round of congratulations.
