Kendo grading up to 7 dan will be held Nov 26 at JCCC, with registration at 8:30 and grading at 9 pm. As in previous years there will be two panels, so senior people do not arrive late.

Iaido grading up to 5 dan will be held Dec 2 at Etobicoke Olympium, with registration at 12 noon and grading at 1 pm.

Registration is now open for both gradings. Written exams will be released soon.

Western grading is to be announced, tentatively planned for the weekend of Dec 2-3 for both disciplines.
