23-11-24 - USKA Ninja's shine on their latest Grading Examination!
We conducted our final USKA Ninja's grading of the year today at the USKA Fight Factory with 51 of the gym's youngest students attempting their next belts.
Anyone who knows USKA knows you get nothing for free and have to fully earn your accolades with us, so with that in mind our Ninja's were pushed to their limits over the 2 hour grading examination that included relay race fitness drills, syllabus line work, Kickboxing padwork and and exercise circuit to finish.
All the above was performed in front of their family and friends for that extra bit of pressure on the day but at the same time a great exercise for confidence building.
We as a group had been working extremely hard on our classes over the last month in preparation for the grade and it definitely paid off with our Ninja's shining bright like the stars they are impressing everyone who was in attendance.
Big congratulations to everyone who graded and passed today and an extra special mention to our five USKA Ninja's Blue Belt candidates Cara Kelly, Ismaeel Zaman, Hibah Bint Iftiaz, Zakariya Masud and Arbaz Khan who all completed their USKA Ninja's impressively syllabus flying through their final grade.
As always, a massive thank you to our Ninja's Instructors and Junior Coaches for conducting and assisting on the grading today, team work really does make the dream work and we couldn't do it without you guys!
Our next USKA Ninja's grade and the first grading for 2025 has been penciled in for 22nd February for anyone who is interested in working towards their next belt.
