The New Year brings new challenges. Will this be the year you advance in grade?

The Dan Grades system is a distinctive feature of judo with promotion to different ranks based on a variety of different pathways and achievements. Obtaining a Dan Grade is one of the highest qualifications available to individuals involved in the sport of judo.

Throughout 2023 there will be a number of Technical Dan Grade and Competitive skills weekends to prepare and examine you for your next Dan Grade. More courses will be advertised as and when they are confirmed.

The list below outlines all of the upcoming Dan Grade courses. Please use the corresponding link to book your place on your preferred course.
