Question Grades

I'm working on the syllabus for my new JKD* club right and I was thinking of having like 6 kup grades but I saw some styles have more and in one way the more the better right cos I can charge for each grading but then I don't have much content so the more grades I have the harder it is to devise a syllabus right. What do you think?

u shud double teh amount of grades cus then ul get more ££££ innit. dnt worry about makin up more stuff. jus drag out ur usual sylabus over 12 grades rather than 6. make sure dat if they pay then they will deffo pass or they may quit. u shud charge about £30 squid a gradin except 4 black belt which shud b about £150 cos a blackbelt is worth loads innit.

gud luk wiv teh JKD club mate

you will make a lot of moey from gradings, but be careful if the partcipants have to go through lots of grades then they might find you too expensive.

nah, they need a grading like evry month or so 2 keep em motivated n 2 make em fink they are achievin sumat innit. if u leave it 2 long n spread teh gradings out 2 much then they will jus get bored n quit innit.

u need 2 make em fink they r actually gainin sumfin regular like. dat way they will keep throwin money at u innit.

No worries mate, in JKD we use yearly contracts so they can't just quit right, they still have to pay right.
