2 THE GRADE SYLLABUS OF S.E.M.K.A. WADO-RYU KARATE Mukyu 9 th Kyu 8 th Kyu 7 th Kyu 6 th Kyu 5 th Kyu 4 th Kyu 3 rd Kyu 2 nd Kyu 1 st Kyu NOTES FOR STUDENTS ANTICIPATING A GRADING Before the grading date, be prepared: 1. All applicants for gradings must wear a clean white Gi. 2. Mon (Badge/s) must be worn on the left side of the Gi. 3. Ensure you have read and understood the Club Rules. 4. Ensure you have an up-to-date S.E.M.K.A. Licence. 5. Ensure you have correct grade registration prior to grading. 6. And probably most important, make sure you 'know' what you need to know for your grading. Best etiquette must be observed at all times. Ensure you pay your respects to the examiner/s in the correct way (always bowing, etc.). Always sit in the crossed legged position, during the 'rest' period between techniques, in the Shimoza area, or allocated rest area, of the Dojo. When called for any aspect of the grading, bow when entering the Dojo-floor. Before the practical aspect of the grading commences, you will be required to kneel before the Examiner/s desk. From here you will be asked to recite the Dojo-kun (Japanese & English) and remove your Obi from your waist and fold it in front of you. Upon a further command, you will retie the Obi correctly around your waist. You will then wait for further instructions. These rules are mottos, the spirit of which serious Students of the Martial Arts should try to follow if they wish to gain the maximum from their training. The rules are like our English saying "Service, not Self", "Deeds, not Words" or "Be Prepared" and exemplify an attitude and a dedication to a way of life. REISETSU O MAMORI (STICK TO THE RULES) In the Dojo, good etiquette must be observed by following the rules. SHINGI O OMANJI (A STUDENT MUST HAVE LOYALTY TO HIS INSTRUCTOR). This is the most important thing in Martial Arts. JOJITSU NI OBEREZU (TEACHERS AND STUDENTS ARE NOT ALL ONE) Outside the Dojo, you can be friendly with your SENSEI, but you must never take advantage of this friendship inside the Dojo - he is your Sensei. SHINKERUNI NI TESSEYO (BE SERIOUS IN YOUR EFFORTS) No turning up late to train, no flippancy chattering, smoking, eating, chewing gum or drinking in the Dojo. Concentrate solely on what you come to do - KARATE, and train hard in everything you do. Visitors, as well as Students, MUST respect the DOJO KUN
