Karate - Intermediate Class

This class is intended for students between ages 7 and 12 years old. This is a fast paced class for levels between yellow belt and green belt ranks. Students will concentrate on what they have already been taught and learned from the previous class, but are shown to use power and focus on technique now that the material is memorized. Students will learn practical applications for what they have learned, and are required to take turns teaching the beginning exercises. At this level, students will take leadership roles by teaching each other and develop confidence by understanding better what it is they are learning. It can take anywhere between 1 to 2 years to graduate to the advanced class level.
