Invincible Worldwide has recently launched its first grading system for the Peak Physical Performance Martial Arts (P3MA) program.
The first stage of P3MA consists of 5 levels - each testing the individuals' fitness conditioning, skills and techniques. Unlike other martial arts, students do not have to wait a certain amount of time to progress the levels. But achieving the levels will not be easy, and so this means they will be forced to be better for themselves. In this system, it is also possible to drop down levels. Hence upon grading for a level requires the student to also complete the requirements of the previous level in order to grade for the new level. This ensures that P3MA students keep up their conditioning and solid foundations.
A problem with traditional levels systems is that after the achievement of, say a black belt, the individual may experience a state of complacency. Now, I'm not suggesting that this happens to everyone. But there are a number of so-called "blackbelts" who are not in the physical state and conditioning that they were when they attained the belt. So how can they call themselves a "blackbelt?" Some grading systems measure the wisdom and experience of the practitioner, but what good is knowledge if it can't be effectively applied?
One should aim to prove themselves at every training session, pushing continuously to be the strongest, fastest and the best at practice. Training thus becomes a constant aim for improvement, rather than a single exert of energy for a certain level, then becoming complacent before motivation is required again to move on to the next level.
