Kids Grading

On the 28th of November, the region 2 Perth Soo Bahk Do, Connor Martial Art kids class Gradings commenced. Approximately 50 students participated in this event, and with many instructors it made the grading a major success. The main grading panel for this event consisted of Sa Bom Nim Connor, as well as Kyo Sa Nim Costa. The panel was impressed by the amount of courage the kids had through the duration of the grading, but also the amount of enthusiasm shown by the candidates and their parents.

The children trained very hard during the grading and learnt many new techniques and learnt how to endure thought the day of the grading. The conclusion of the kids gradings was on the 5th of December, where all the kids received their grading results, and were all able to pass on a positive note. In conclusion the kids gradings were both a learning and enjoying experience for our whole community.
