Last year’s COVID related disruptions put a crimp on many Club activities, including our regular BBRD Jujutsu grading opportunities. While we had been toying with the idea of holding a February shinsa, after discussion with eligible candidates, it was decided that we would revert to a May grading instead.

The main reason is that we have had both an influx of new students, and a period of catch up with what we have been covering in class. Given that I will be away through the week from 1 March till 2 April, there will still be sufficient time to get some intensive revision in so that everyone can give their best on the day.

If you do not have access to the current grading requirements for the level you are attempting, please let me know ASAP and I can forward another copy through to you. If you have looked through the grading requirements and have any questions regarding specific aspects of what you need to do, please let me know sooner rather than later so that we can have sufficient time to work on it.
