WC Revision Grades 4, 8, 12

If you’ve just passed your Grade 3 and are wondering what happens next, read on …

As you may know by now, Grade 4 is different from the previous grades because you need to re-grade all the Beginner Syllabus at a higher level. Grade 4 usually takes two to three grading cycles due to the amount of material needed to cover, however depending on your ability and skill it can certainly be done in one cycle.

In the regular grades we have a plan for what we teach each week, however in the Revision Grades (4, 8 and 12) you’ll usually be given the option to choose what you would like to train as you have more material to cover than the other grades. Our advice is to have a copy of the Syllabus with you and to work through the exercises a few each week based on how well you know them. The other students going for Revision Grades will help you out, and you can plan your training as a group. 

You can download a copy of the syllabus https://futube.co.uk/wing-chun/wc-beginner-syllabus-overview and if you don’t have access to a printer we can print one for you.

The final part of a Revision Grade is the Pressure Test, which is a combination of padwork, self defence, and free applications against unknown attacks. For Grade 4 this is two minutes long. You can check out videos of previous pressure tests here.

You may or may not know that once you pass your Grade 4 and start on the Intermediate syllabus, you will also receive a new t-shirt. To make sure that we have this prepared and ready when you pass  please let us know your preferred t-shirt size, and we will record this for your future grading.

Good luck, and let us know if you have any questions.
