The six successful Dan Students seated in front of the examiners following their accomplishment.

The Association do Shotokan Karate – Guyana (ASK-G) on Sunday last held another successful Grading exercise which saw 153 students graded yet again by Head of the IKD, 9^th Dan Shuseki Shihan Frank Woon-a-Tai at the YMCA.
Accompanying Shuseki Woon-a-Tai to Guyana were Mrs. Mureen Woon-a-Tai – 8^th Dan Shihan Vice Chairman of the IKD and 7^th Dan Shihan Bernice Hughes. Before the exams commenced, tensions were high with some students being well hyped up, while others were very nervous, especially among those taking black belt exams.
Graciously Shuseki Woon-a-Tai allowed the white, yellow, orange and green belts to leave after their exams were over as well as the presentation.
Meanwhile, Dan Diplomas were presented to five of the eight successful students at the November 2017 exams. Shian Amir Khouri and Shian Jeffrey Wong were presented with their Masters Dan Diploma after being successful at their 7^th Dan exams, November last.
