GRADINGS – PROGRESSION
Advancing through the belt systems requires regular class attendance, focus, effort, discipline and practice.
Over time and as experience is gained, students are able to progress through a belt system, learning and demonstrating ever more complex techniques.
Assessment of a student’s level of ability is carried out at set intervals and after specific techniques from the syllabus have been learned.
These assessments are called Gradings.
Style: Kids Martial Arts Foundation Programme
Minimum Age: 5
The first belt to be awarded is White Belt.
White Belt is awarded during a regular class shortly after starting training, when students are able to demonstrate that they are able to follow instruction, listen and maintain concentration during class. The time to achieve this depends on a student’s ability.
Further gradings are held every 3 months.
Depending on maturity, students will move into the Junior Self Defence Program between the age of 7-8 years old.
Style: KAPAP Krav Maga
Minimum Age: Juniors: 8 +, Teens / Adults: 13+
The first belt to be awarded is White Belt.
White belt gradings demonstrate correct execution and understanding of basic techniques and are taken 6-8 weeks after training has begun. This varies depending on a student’s ability.
The syllabus is split into a Junior syllabus and Adult syllabus (13+), where the range of techniques taught is appropriate to the age being taught. A Junior student that completes the Junior syllabus will move on to contiune with the Adult syllabus at a minimum age of 13.
Depending on a student’s attendance and level of ability it will take between 3 and 5 years to earn a Black Belt in KAPAP Krav Maga. The Adult syllabus Black Belt can only be achieved at a minimum age of 16.

The Trinity Martial Arts syllabi for Kids Martial Arts Classes and Krav Maga & Self Defence Classes are ratified by our governing body, the BMABA, so student’s can rest assured that their gradings and the earning of their belts are nationally recognised.
