This is an open session for all students - cost is €10. Please bring Licence, Gi and Pads, Lunch and water.

All grading candidates must fill out and present the relevant medical form and present it on the day along with an up to date and complete IKK Licence, and the relevant fee. Dan Grade candidates must also present a complete Dan Grade form along with the appropriate fee and 2 passport photographs. Please distribute these forms as necessary. Candidates for Sandan must also include their own Kata in hard copy format.

Please send a scanned signed copy of the Dan Grade form to Sensei Shane Lalor by June 24th. (For club instructors who will be grading please forward the Grading form to me at least one week in advance of the grading so we can complete section C). In section A please fill in section A10 (length of Belt) I know this is in the Official use section but please fill it in anyway. Candidates for Dan Grade should also provide copies of Child Protection course attended and up to date First Aid Certificate.

I take this opportunity to remind all dojo instructors that it is your responsibility to ensure that IKK licences you issue to your students have a photograph and are signed by both you and the student.
