Graduation Week!
Graduation week is one of our favourite times of the term, and for good reason!
This is the moment our students receive their new belts, and we love every second of it. Graduation classes are a special celebration where our whole dojo community comes together to recognise how far everyone has come throughout the term.
During the class, students will showcase short demonstrations of what they've been working on, so parents, guardians, family and friends, this is your chance to see just how much your little (or not so little!) martial artist has grown.
Students will then be awarded their new belts and celebrated for all their hard work and dedication this term. It really is such a special moment to be a part of!
Please note: regular classes for Basic students and above will not be running during Graduation Week, so make sure you check the timetable below to find your graduation class.
You can book in via the app or at the dojo, we can't wait to celebrate with you!
