anything up to about 50 students grade, going through the basics together and then the katas, with the white belts sitting down after the 1st Kata, yellows after the 2nd etc.
How many instructors are watching?
We probably have about 50 students grading at once, but split up into groups. I mean, all in the same dojo (and with a training session going on at the other end of the dojo, which makes it even harder to hear the instructions they're giving us) but split up into groups within that.
Both times I've done the exam I've felt like I was going to pass out afterwards, so you did fantastically well to keep going through the heat.
If it had been as hot there as it was in Cambridge, I would have passed out. As it was my head was pounding and my whole body felt like it was on fire by the end of it. Next time I do a grading I'm going to try to do it in the winter, dammit!
