Yonkyu - 4th Kyu
Green Belt
Katas
The Long 3 Kata is a Technique Kata. All the Techniques in the Kata are done on both sides.
The first and second sections of the Bookset Kata can be done as a breathing exercise and Dynamic Tension. These should only be practiced by advanced students after they have mastered the set. This particular aspect should not be taught to beginning students because of the length of time required to do it right. Teach it at the high Brown Belt level or even better, at the Black Belt Level.
At this point in the students training they have learned 7 Katas.
