That concludes the National Grading for this year, a day that once again tested the spirit, skill, and perseverance of every participant.

🥋 Results

• Sempai Ethan and Sempai Petra – promoted to Nidan

• Olani – promoted to Shodan and will now be addressed as Sempai

• Veronica – promoted to 1st Kyu

• Ashton, Elai, and Leia – promoted to 2nd Kyu

A huge congratulations to all those who were successful. National Grading is always an intense and emotional challenge, designed to push candidates to their limits both mentally and technically. Each promotion reflects dedication, resilience, and the true Kyokushin spirit.

For those who were not successful this time, remember: every experience is a stepping stone. Reflect, learn, and come back stronger — because perseverance is at the heart of martial arts.
