The curriculum is set up with nine basic life skills and nine basic safety skills. This is designed for a rotating 12 week cycle, this allows each skill to be repeated twice as children tend to learn through repetition. Belts are awarded for ATTENDANCE, ACTIVITY SHEET COMPLETION and SKILLS, though are not to be taken seriously as in this age group FUN is the most important thing! A Lil' Dragon Black Belt is a student who has attended the required number of classes AND completed activity sheets AND gets involved in the physical skills in class. It is NOT a sign of fighting ability at this stage.
