it was pretty intense grading, sensei worked us hard. i was knackered by the end of basics.
i also stuffed my first attempt at the "kata of choice" which is pretty stupid since i picked it. only thing is, up till now, we have only done kihon and the heains shodan nidan sandan and yondan
shodan is the warm up kata, so we cant pick that
yondan is the grade kata, so we cant pick that.
and san dan and ni dan are the two kata i always mix with each other.
thankfully i got it right the second (and sudden death, stuff a kata twice and you fail) time.
the rest of it i rekon i did pretty well tho i rekon my stances could have been better.
bring on 4th kyu

Cool , congrats mate. Now on to your 4th kyu (I assume it's purple and white? It was that in the shotokan association I was in).
