On the 14th February, Hastings Kombat Academy (HKA) proudly hosted one of our biggest and most successful kickboxing grading days in Hastings, East Sussex to date, with an incredible 76 students grading and a 100% pass rate.
It was a fantastic achievement for our gym and a true reflection of the dedication, discipline, and hard work our students consistently show on the mats.
Grading Results Breakdown
We were thrilled to have awarded the following belts:
- Red Belt – 34 students
- Yellow Belt – 22 students
- Orange Belt – 12 students
- Green Belt – 3 students
- Purple Belt – 5 students
From beginners taking their first big step into coloured belts to advanced students moving closer to senior ranks, every single person demonstrated technical improvement, resilience, and strong fighting spirit.
Achieving a 100% pass rate across all belt levels is no small feat. It shows the strength of our coaching system, the commitment of our members, and the supportive culture we continue to build at HKA.
A Huge Well Done to Our Students
Grading day is about more than just belts. It’s about:
- Building confidence
- Developing discipline
- Improving fitness and technique
- Learning to perform under pressure
Every student who stepped onto the mats this past Saturday pushed themselves outside their comfort zone!
Whether it was perfecting pad work, demonstrating sharp combinations, showing strong sparring control, or displaying excellent fitness levels, the standard across the board was outstanding.
