Karate – Intermediate Level
Our INTERMEDIATE LEVEL consists of 2 groups of students:
- Intermediate 1 – Blue Belt to Yellow Tip
- Intermediate 2 – Yellow Belt to Green Tip
These students are ready to learn more complex techniques and kata forms and start exploring the handling of Japanese traditional weapons.
