Shihan Gorter wrote ....“The grading went very well. I am very proud of our new two shodans Piet en Niels. The grading started at 1:00 pm and ended at 6 pm. Besides shodan grading we also had a few kyu gradings.”

For the shodan shinsa I had the following programme:

  • Warming Up (outside running, stretching, kata in light sparring form and more)
     
  • Strike pad (various combinations)
     
  • Techniques (ashihara karate’s solution to different attacks)
     
  • Kata (shoshin kata sono ichi, shoshin kata sono ni, Jissen Kata sono ichi, Kumite Kata yon and Nage No Kata san). Kata was performed in different ways (standard, sparring etc).
     
  • Self Defence
     
  • 4 minutes Sabaki
     
  • 5 x 3 minutes ground fighting
     
  • 30 men Kumite (2 minutes per round)
