Childerens Classes

We have a coloured sash ranking system in place for children in order for them to progress
We do not charge for children moving up in rank nor do they need to sit any test 
Progressing is made similar to the adult structure
Each child will be awarded, free of charge a coloured sash to show their rank based on attendance, skill and knowledge  

The order of the rank sashes are as follows......

1. Junior Yellow

2. Junior Orange

3. Junior Green

4. Junior Blue

5. Junior Brown

6. Junior Red

7. Junior Black
 
Any child awarded a black sash will be registered similar to the adults at NAMAS NGB.
If they wish to join the adult class in the future, the sashes will not be recognised and they will enter into the 7 level adult ranking system, as a 
Level 2 Advanced Student.
