Zen Eikoku Tomiki Aikido Renmei have removed the hours requirement in the kyu grade syllabus. ZETAR technical committe feel that too many students are more concerned about achieving hours than the quality of their Aikido.
Attitude and character towards Aikido should be taken into account. Examiners may ask to see any part of the preceding syllabus.
