About This Activity
Description
(DROP-OFF Program): At this level, with some practice under their belt, students know that the rules are in place to protect them. Respect has taught them caution. Participants understand eye-contact as a method of communication. At this level, students will continue to practice sparring and the benefits of self-defense as they begin to earn stripes and different color belts and practice goal-setting and obtainment.
Students at this level are introduced to incentives and rewards in the form of stripes on their belts that lead to belt promotion. These exciting milestones are based on learning specific material, good behavior, facing challenges and consistent attendance. It should be noted and explained to young students that these stripes are not the same as stickers at school, which are a little bit easier to attain. Stripes are earned and not everyone will be promoted at the same time. For more information on this, please ask Sensei Noah for the password to the Students section of the Boston Budo website.
Please read the notes at the bottom of this page carefully, and email jkelly@hillhouseboston.org if you have any questions before the season starts, or if you register less than a week before the program begins. |
