Training continues as normal throughout the spring school holidays, including the Labour Day public holiday on Monday 5 October.

It’s a great time to stay active and keep up your training. Our instructors often include some special activities during the holidays, so there may be something a little different to enjoy at your class.

Whether you’re a regular student or thinking about trying martial arts for the first time, we look forward to welcoming you to Zanshin.

A reminder to all Zanshin Martial Arts students that grading forms must be returned to your instructor this week.

Our September gradings will be held on:

• Saturday, 12 September 2026
Northside Grading at Franklin

• Sunday, 13 September 2026
Southside Grading at Conder

Students only need to attend one grading day.

Please visit our grading page for the session times, locations and further information:

If you have misplaced your grading form, please speak with your instructor as soon as possible.

Just a reminder that grading forms are due back this week.

With gradings on 13 and 14 June, instructors will be spending the next couple of weeks preparing students for grading and marking off curriculum requirements on training cards as students complete the techniques needed for their next belt.

If you have misplaced your grading form, please see your instructor and we will organise another one for you.

Keep up the great work, and we look forward to seeing everyone at grading.

We hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Easter.

Just a reminder that all Zanshin Martial Arts classes will continue to run as normal throughout the school holidays, with no changes to the usual schedule.

We look forward to seeing everyone back at training.

As 2026 moves into the Easter school holidays, just keeping you updated on the Zanshin training schedule.

• Good Friday - 3rd April 2026 - All classes are running as normal.
• Easter Sunday - 5th April 2026 - Classes are not running.
• Easter Monday - 6th April 2026 - All classes are running as normal.

Zanshin classes are otherwise running as normal throughout the ACT and NSW School Holidays.

This is a good time to bank up a few classes in preparation for grading, or to check out a class in a different location - a bit of variation can really motivate you for training.

The next Zanshin grading is scheduled for the 13th and 14th of June - get ready for it!

We’re excited to announce a brand new Zanshin Martial Arts location opening at Shirley Smith High School in Kenny, servicing the Gungahlin area.

This is a fantastic new venue with modern facilities, a proper wooden floor, and an excellent training environment for our students.

Classes will be run by Sensei Chamath, and we’re looking forward to building a strong group in this area.

Starting Thursday 26 March

Class Details:
• Junior classes only
• Every Thursday evening
• 6:00pm to 7:00pm

We’d really appreciate your support in helping grow this new location. If you know anyone in the Kenny or surrounding areas who would benefit from training, please pass this on.

We look forward to seeing this centre grow.
