幼児のための空手！（継続中）

This course is meant to introduce young learners to the martial arts in a fun and engaging way, as well as give them some space to get the wiggles out. The pace of the class is quick and energetic, and students are encouraged to keep trying and improving their new skills. 

Each week will have a focus skill that operates on a rotating basis. Whatever the focus skill of the week is will receive extra time in class. Week 1 of the month will focus on punches and blocks. Week 2 will focus on kicks. Week 3 will focus on falling. Week 4 will focus on combinations. If there is a fifth week to the month, it will focus on counting and review. Learners will not be behind no matter when they join, as all skills will be worked on every class, even if they are not the focus skill that week. 

For a class starting on August 1, the weekly breakdown would be:
Week of August 1: Punches and Blocks
Week of August 8: Kicks
Week of August 15: Falling
Week of August 22: Combinations
Week of August 29: Counting and Review

This general format of each class is below:
