White Tiger Kenpo

Belt Rank Requirements for testing

Attaining rank is often a motivational goal for the majority of martial artists. The value of rank achieved is often different from school to school. We have realized this to be a problem. So we created a teaching curriculum that can be taught in a consistent manner in order to establish uniformity within the White Tiger Kenpo association.
