16-03-24 - Another USKA General Grading completed at the USKA Fight Factory!
In a quieter than normal General Grading due to Ramadan at the USKA Fight Factory today we seen 40 new Grades awarded from Red Belt (1st Belt) through to Purple Belt (6th Belt).
The Grading under close inspection and scrutiny of Grading Examiner and USKA Senior Instructor Qasim Beg lasted in it's entirety for 3 1/2 hours (4 1/2 hours including the preparation class) with everyone who made the grade well and truly earning their new belts.
For the unsuccessful, dust yourself off, learn lessons, make adjustments and come again, it is a bump in the road but still a valuable part of the journey.
Big congratulations to our A Graders today of Krystal Durham (White 91 / A-), Mateusz Klaczek (White 95 / A-) and Ollie Cooke (White 98 / A).
Also a special mention to our highest Grades today Abbas Rivzi, Elijah Brown and Isa Khan who all successfully passed their Purple Belts with score of Abbas (Purple 80 / B-), Elijah (Purple 85 / B) and Isa (Purple 82 / B).
Well done to everyone on their Grading success and a big thank you to our Senior Instructor Qasim Beg for getting them ready and putting them through their paces.
The next Grading will be in June for anyone interested in attempting their next belts, please check our website events page for further details.
