Junior Rank Guidelines

Post by iac1 »

Hello,

Would some of you, teachers and students, please share your rank guidelines? I have four students who have been studying for about a year that I would like to promote. The other dojo ownerrs I've spoken with strongly support the use of colored belts for children. Rather than reinvent the wheel, I thought I'd see what is already being done.

The class is pretty traditional Uechi. Students are ages 6-11. The group that needs to be promoted is doing all the opening exercises including Hojo Undo, Sanchin, Kanshiwa and are beginning Kumite One.

Thanks!

If you are Uechika, than i would suggest going to http://www.nskarate.tk/ and looking in the faq section under: WHAT ARE THE RANKS AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS?

These are for our dojo, although i would suggest that the kids don't do the conditioning for a testing since they are still developing and it's dangerous to condition developing bodies. If you want more information contact me.
