Gradings & Progression

2 bars = Practitioner Level 2 (P2)

G-level-patch

Graduate Level (G1-G5)

These are mainly Krav Maga instructors, although there are Graduate level students who have not taken the instructors certification. Graduate's grading patches are dark blue with silver bars.

5 bars = Graduate Level 5 (G5)

E-level-patch

Expert Level (E1-E5)

These are high level instructors. Usually specialising or assisting in other areas such as Law Enforcememnt or Special Units, in addition to their general qualification. Their grading patches are gold with black bars.
