  • Karate Student Handbook Revision 4
    Welcome Welcome to Massdojo: The benefits of karate are many and will empower and enrich your or your child’s life in so many ways. Training in the martial arts takes a great deal of dedication, perseverance, and character, but and also strengthens these qualities over time. As you progress, you will find that the rewards go well beyond attaining different colored belts. Congratulations on taking the first, and most important, step of your journey. New student handbook: This handbook will serve as a reference tool throughout your training. It contains helpful information such as dojo rules and regulations, terminology, kata, testing requirements, etc. All this information can be found on massdojo.com as well. Please visit the site for updates. Clothing & Equipment: Uniforms, accessories and equipment are available for purchase at any time. Sparring equipment can be purchased at any time but is required upon completing the first karate promotional examination. No equipment, including uniforms purchased elsewhere, will be permitted for use in the dojo. Questions: Feel free to call or preferably e-mail sensei at your convenience: [email protected] . Please refrain from interrupting the instructor teaching staff during instruction and in between classes unless absolutely necessary. This will help out everyone keep classes running smoothly and on time. Testing: Karate is unique in that there are promotional examinations where students are awarded belts for improving their skill and knowledge. Testing takes place every two months. As students reach higher belt levels there are waiting periods in Karate-do Student Handbook for: between tests. This is so more complicated katas can be learned and skills can be improved.
