 GRADINGS

Gradings take place every 3 months in a central location for each region and this will always be in the presence of our Chief Instructor, Sensei Sahota (8th Dan). These are not compulsory, so you can decide if you wish to grade or not, but if your instructor feels you are not ready to grade, they will advise you to wait until the next grading. A Grading Application Form needs to be completed if you wish to grade and is available 4 – 5 weeks prior to the grading date. Grading Applications, Licence and Fee are due in 2 weeks prior to the event.

We hold several TISKA Tournaments throughout the year, consisting of a Southern Region, Northern Region and Black Belt Championships, which all students are welcome to participate in or just spectate. These are closed events and exclusive to TISKA students. Full details available nearer the time from your club or on our website.
