Grading pathway

Make the grade

With the Tek grading belt being a symbol of discipline, commitment and perseverance, this proves to be one of the most rewarding and enlightening pathways. Helping students overcome self-doubt, low self-esteem and mental barriers enforced over years, giving them a unique opportunity to conquer mental hurdles, improve physical conditions and achieve a rank of ongoing progress.

Every student’s progress through the grading pathway is unique to the individual, their age and ability. Students’ development is determined by their record of attendance, effort and additional training. This allows Tek’s student to work through the grading system at their rate.
