イエローベルトへの道

私が最初に地元の短大で松涛館空手のクラスに武道を始めたとき, 講師は、誰もが読めるのは記事を配った. 記事は、統計と研究をカバー. 研究では、すべての外にそれを発見した 10,000 武道の学生のみ 100 黒帯を獲得するために行くだろう. Most beginning students quit after six months and seventy-five percent quit after a year.

In the almost ten years that I have been teaching, I have found these statistics to be pretty accurate. Due the high attrition rate, I have begun to rethink what a modern curriculum should look like. If most students will be gone in six months and most students come to class to learn self-defense, we should focus the first six months of a student’s training on making them as “street ready” as possible.

In retrospect, I would make the beginner’s program six months long. We would focus on learning the techniques by striking pads, sparring and practicing self-defense. Once the student showed a significant mastery of these techniques, I would teach them the things that make a martial art: forms, traditional drills and traditional sparring.

Most martial arts programs including mine are very concerned about outlining the path for the student who wants to get their black belt. It is important to encourage and guide those rare students who will one day be black belts. <スパンbbox_x = "14" fweight = "3"赤= "255"緑= "255"青= "255"アルファ= "=" 244 "bbox_y =" 627 "bbox_w =" 56 "bbox_h =" 20 "FSIZE, it is just as important if not more so to have a solid beginning program because most students don’t go past this level.
