Adult Curriculum
Adult karate-ka (karate students) are trained in typical punching and kicking techniques as well as self-defense techniques, grappling, throws, takedowns, kyusho-jitsu (pressure point fighting) and martial arts philosophy. A reading list will expose the karate-ka to diverse technique and thought.
The kyu ranks – through 3rd Degree Brown Belt (1st Kyu) – will be tested on kata (forms), bunkai, oyo, basic drills, goshin waza (self-defense techniques), randori and free sparring. Above Black Belt 1st Dan students will expand and deepen their understanding of martial excellence through intense study of kata interpretation and kyusho application.
