The ProKick exams saw the enthusiastic Kickboxing kids undergo a comprehensive assessment covering various aspects of the sport, propelling them to new heights.
During a grading, Kickboxing students, both non-contact and contact, are assessed across different levels/grades. Beginners start at the White Belt level and progress through ten levels, eventually achieving the prestigious Dan grade at black belt, which can be likened to a degree in Kickboxing. This remarkable accomplishment typically takes an average of six to eight years of dedicated training, with an average of three to four times per week.
The ProKick team had an eventful weekend! Yesterday, 20 young ProKick members bravely stepped into the ring, while today (Sunday), approximately 80 enthusiastic individuals advanced to the next level in ProKick's kickboxing grading system. What a whirlwind of a weekend.
