Here's a question for all the instructors - what are the core criteria you look for in a student undertaking a grading?

Spirit, technique, timing, focus and presentation.

Wow, for a first question, that's a good one! The first thing is that the student has attended class enough times to enable them to know their syllabus and content. Given that then I agree with Sensei Gary totally…Spirit and focus. If a technique is not quite mastered, this may be over looked if it is performed with Kime. Very good question )
