The pressure was on at this months Exam as the search for kickboxing excellence continued at Northern Ireland’s top kickboxing gym.- There will be more photos posted in the gallery from the days grading.


A grading is when Kickboxing students, non-contact and contact, are assessed through a series of levels / grades, with the base level being White Belt, through ten levels, finally reaching a Dan grade at black belt, which is equivalent, if you like, to a degree level in KickBoxing. This type of achievement would take, on average, between six and eight years with a training regime of on average of three to four times a week.
