How this quarter fits the programme

Year two deepens the kata work through Seiuchin and Naihanchi, adds Wansu, and brings in break falls and the first escrima stick drills.

Promotion to the next quarter happens when this syllabus has been completed and demonstrated in class, assessed by the instructors rather than on a fixed calendar date.
