2009 Dan Testing
 
Technical exams for the IKOKC 2009 Dan Testing continue throughout the month of July as a lead up to Summer Camp 2009.
 
This year 12 students put their names forward to attempt various levels of Black Belt grading.  Dan grading in Western Canada contains a number of the following elements:
  • Application to the Branch Chief by January 31.
  • Application includes: Resume, First Aid Certification, CPR certification, National Coaching certification, Camp/event attendance requirements.
  • Attendance at Winter Camp.
  • Interview, written exam and board breaking at Winter Camp.
  • Technical Exam (between Winter Camp and Summer Camp)
  • Attendance at Summer Camp.
  • Required fighting (number of fights dependant upon dan level) at Summer Camp.
  • Second attempt at board breaking for those who were unsuccessful at Winter Camp.
Although a grueling process all the applicants appear to have accepted the challenges put in front of them for Kyokushin Karate Black Belt grading and are working hard to attain a successful outcome.
