Dear Students / parents
The next 'Area seminar and grading' will be on either Sat 17th or Sun 18th November in Bolton (actual day to be confirmed asap). Lifts can be arranged.
We normally start at around 9.30 with the adults seminar (also includes all over 13 year olds and all junior red tags and above). This lasts for 2 hours and is followed by the junior seminar at around 11.30 which lasts for 1 hour. There is then a short break for lunch of about half an hour, followed by the grading. Lower grades grade first and can then go - so up to yellow belts would hopefully be finished within an hour.
The seminar is a lesson / advice session given by a 7th or 8th Dan Master. Grading rules require students to attend 2 seminar per year. All Wirral UKTA students who pay monthly get two seminars included so have 'nothing to pay' for the seminar.
If you don't pay monthly the cost is £18 for the senior seminar, £15 for the junior seminar. The grading costs are the same. (Its not too late to set up your monthly payments now!). Not everyone is ready to grade. I'll be letting you know this week if I think you are ready to grade - if I don't speak to you make sure you ask.
I will need confirmation from you this week as to whether you are attending the seminar or not.
