A reminder to all Zanshin Martial Arts students that we are now in the final week for grading applications.

Gradings will be held on:

• Friday 14 March – Franklin
• Saturday 15 March – Conder

If you are planning to grade this term, please make sure your grading application is submitted this week so everything can be processed in time.

Gradings are always a great opportunity for students to demonstrate the skills they have been working on and take the next step in their training.

We look forward to seeing everyone who is preparing for their next level.

On behalf of the Zanshin Instructors, we'd like to wish you a happy New Year. We're looking forwards to 2026 being another great year of Zanshin training.

If you have a training goal for this year, we'll help you get there! If you're new to martial arts, the best time to start is now.

Zanshin classes start resuming from the 5th of January, but we're working around hall availability, so not every location will be back at the start of January. Check out the Zanshin Calendar for dates and find a location close to you!

All Zanshin Martial Arts centres across Canberra and New South Wales are now open and operating as normal. The recent school closures have been lifted and our dojos are fully back to regular classes.

There is no longer any need for daily updates. Please attend your usual class times and locations as all junior and senior sessions will run as scheduled.

Also, please remember to pick up your grading forms from your instructor if you have not already done so. Grading is only three weeks away, so make sure you are prepared.

Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding over the last week. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you back in training.
