The Tesshinkan Grading Syllabus was formulated by Tamayose Sensei
in close accordance with his instructor's own grading syllabus.  The
techniques and time chosen for each rank have been analyzed closely
and are carefully matched with the experience level of a serious
Tesshinkan student training every day with primary emphasis on kihon.
