The International Shotokan Karate Federation (ISKF) Barbados now has four new Shodans.
Dakoda Walkes and Michael Roberts, along with two juniors, have been promoted after the federation recently held a grading for the ranks of Kyu and Dan.
Juniors Nathan Small and Aren Spencer were promoted as a total of 65 Karatekas faced grading in multiple Katas and Kumite. The Dan test consisted of Kihon, Kata and Kumite.
The Federation is currently preparing to train a full team of juniors, seniors and masters that will contest next year’s ISKF Pan American Karate Championships after it holds another grading in November. (JM/PR)
