Q&A for How to Get a Yellow Belt in GKR Karate

Always ask questions like, "What do I need to work on?", "Could you watch me and give me some tips?" or, "Can we spar?" This could be to your sensei or any members in your class. Also try mixing it up by attending more classes because of the different teaching techniques and people that vary across regions. Remember everyone is different and some senseis can guide you better than others.

Most karate lessons last for 1 to 2 hours, and most students attend 2 to 3 lessons per week.

Push ups, squats, jumping kicks, front punch, low punch, high block, low block, front kick, and side kick.

Gradings can last anywhere from 1 hour to 2½ hours. When grading to a yellow belt, some of this time may be spent watching higher grades sparring.
