For children up to and including the age of 15.
The children obtain a red sash for passing their first grading, and obtain a certificate for every subsequent grading. All children will begin at the first level and work their way through the structure. All gradings are £10 each, which will be collected in advance. The children and parents will be invited to attend the grading when the Instructor feels that the child is ready to grade at their level. All gradings will take place at the White Crane Studio in Grosvenor Street, which is located off Edward Street in Kemp Town.
