1st Kyu Advanced Brown Belts will have a review class available to prepare for blackbelt selection. This is the first of two planned review classes to be held in 2025.
Qualified First Kyu Advanced Brown Belt adult students and blackbelts are invited to a special 1st Kyu Review class on Saturday, March 1, 2025 at 12:30PM.
The one hour special class will review a wide range of material – it will specifically focus on kata and all varieties of kihon waza. There will also be a brief discussion of the Blackbelt Selection process and suggestions for preparing for it.
Qualification to Attend
To attend karateka must have held or have successfully tested for the rank of 1st Kyu (Advanced Brown Belt) in the Adult or Teen division by the end of December 2024.
While the review class is specifically aimed at 1st Kyu students, any blackbelt that wishes to review material, or would like to assist the class is also invited to participate.
The class will also be livecast, so any student eligible to attend this class that wishes to attend will also be able to attend remotely. Note that 1st Kyu students should only attend this via LiveCast if they are not based in New York City – in-person participation is strongly encouraged.
