Fellow Kenpoists,
Good evening to all!
I wanted to post a general question to get some views on current belt requirements and any additional requirements some instructors might have added on top of the known 24, 16, 15 tech. levels with the usual forms and sets in their own schools...
So do many of you require your students to remember addition material, i.e. forms or sets you have created, material from different arts, etc...
Many times I feel in my school/ club, we teach material from different schools of thought, but we never require the students to remember the information. One instance is that I was thinking of requiring my students to learn Mr. Whitson's Counterpoint and some how set it as a requirement at some belt level... or possibly arnis material too.
What do you as an instructor or student feel about this?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts. Good journey!
Respectfully,
