Jissen Budo Camp & Grading

The Jissen Budo Queensland Camp and Black Belt Grading will be held on the 13th & 14th of February at Black Dragon Kai Hombu Dojo 49 Hart St Beaudesert.

Come along and learn from JBI senior Instructors all ranges of fighting from standing at range, clinching, and the the ground.

Cost is $100 payable on arrival at the camp.

Also for those interested you can test for grade in Jissen Budo.

I will give a quick outline of how the gradings work and try to post up some more details as we go.

Jissen Budo International Black Belt/Dan Grading

To recognise the proficiency in martial and fighting skills with international rank and enable members to focus their martial arts journey.

Grading will consist of:

1. Stand Up Skill At Range
   • Striking
   • Combinations
   • Footwork
   • Padwork
   • Partner Drills
2. Clinching Range
   • Striking
   • Transitions
   • Balance
   • Throws & Takedowns
   • Partner Drills
3. Ground Fighting
   • Holds
   • Escapes
   • Transitions
   • Strikes
   • Defence
   • Stand Ups
   • Partner Drills

You will be taught and drill together. You will then be asked to show proficiency in different aspects of each section. Live partner work will also be included the test to show current capabilities and responses.

Each section is worth 10 points, with a maximum total of 30 points to be awarded, based on skill, application and experience.

• 1st Dan = 10 points total
• 2nd Dan = 15 points total
• 3rd Dan = 20 points total
• 4th Dan = 25 points total
• 5th Dan = 30 points total

3rd Dan and above have some other prerequisites and requirements. But essentially if you are high level in one area and aware of the other two, or average across all three areas you should be able to pass the 1st Dan Black Belt Test (Shodan).

Points earnt below 10 designate what Kyu level you have acheived (ie. 8 points = Brown Belt 8th kyu ect).

Then to progress to the next Dan it should be clear where you need to focus on your training. I am happy to provide guidance and instruction for anyone that is interested.

Successful candidates will be awarded a certificate on the day. Then a custom embroidered black belt (expensive) will be ordered from Japan to be presented at a later date.

JBI Dan Grading Cost - $400 (includes embroidered belt & certificate cost)

JBI Kyu Grading Cost - $60 (includes belt and certificate)

Grading payment is done before camp commmences and applicants are reimbursed if they do not pass.
