Kid's Curriculum:

Click on the belt or level to get a PDF of the rank requirements. By the time a student reaches Black belt level in the Tiger Program, they will have the equivalent of a Brown belt in Isshinryu Karate, Small Circle Jujitsu, and Modern Arnis.

As a student is promoted through the kids program, they will earn their promotion through the school, but the curriculum is organized so that they will have the training to obtain a belt (two steps lower) in both adult classes of Small Circle Jujitsu and Modern Arnis.
