Tiny
Tigers
The Tiny
Tigers program was developed specifically for preschool age children ages 5 through
6. This program offers children a strong foundation in essential character qualities
such as courtesy, respect, and discipline. In addition,
the program is designed to improve children's motor skills and enhance their ability to
pay attention and follow directions. All classes are taught using the most safe,
fun, and exciting instruction methods available for this age group. The program
works in conjunction with the Karate for Kids program, thereby emphasizing the same
important monthly themes and value system.
Just like in the Karate for Kids
program, Tiny
Tigers have their own unique victory patch and "Victory Stars".
Stars are earned in the same way as the Karate for Kids program, with slight modifications
in recognition of the preschool age of the child. Four different colored victory
patches are available to accommodate all the stars that can be earned by high achieving
Tiny Tigers. Except for the logo, the four victory patches of the Tigers are the
same as the Karate for Kids patches. Upon graduation from the Tiny Tigers program
into the "Junior" or "Big Kid"
program, tigers are rewarded by the opportunity to wear the "Big Kids" or "Karate
for Kids" patch.
The rank and testing system used by the Tigers is slightly different than
that of the Karate for Kids. Tigers can earn six collectible animal patches to
display on their belts. All six patches, as earned, can be displayed on the child's belt.
