On December 12th, the Brazil branch held an examination for 1st Dan. The six examinees, Christian Yoshida, Daniel Frauzino, Francisco Lima, Matheus Magalhães, Jose Maria Teixeira, and Caio Hashimoto, challenged the technical, strength and kumite tests. They performed full Kihon, basic and advanced Katas, along with a variety of physical tests.
The examination started at 10:00 am and ended at 2:30 pm. It was a tough test, but the participants were well-prepared and passed the examination for their black belts.
