These intermediate belt levels include understanding of the beginner belts, knife self-defense, and high intensity katas. These belts include the start of light contact sparring to help better understand the concepts of defending yourself in a street fight.

ADVANCED PROGRAM

The Red Belt Program challenges the student to extend themselves, defining their personal strengths and weaknesses and beginning their individual path toward becoming a Black Belt. The character traits of Perseverance, Confidence and Patience are strengthened in this program.

​

At this level, the student will start to understand more of the philosophy and depth of martial arts. The student will be trained more intensely in sparring to understand the reality of self-defense. Students will be expected to help with the beginner belt classes to get a taste of the true nature of teaching.

SUPPLEMENTARY ARTS - BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a purely defensive art used primarily on the ground. Since 95% of all street fights end up on the ground, this art is essential in balancing an overall martial artist’s skill. Jiu-Jitsu is a balance of quick efficient takedowns and throws, along with precise chokes, strangles and jointlocks to keep the attacker in a non-damaged submitted state. We incorporate Jiu-Jitsu in our art to open up options for jointlocks and chokes which complements the self-defense in our core curriculum. Understanding the aspects of grappling and upright fighting truly balances a martial artist to have them feel comfortable in any situation.

​

AT THIS TIME JIU-JITSU IS ONLY TAUGHT TO FAMILY TREE BLACK BELTS.
