Big Tigers are students 6 to 7 years of age. These students follow a different ranking system than students 8 years of age and above. Big Tiger classes are only a half-hour in length to account for the younger student’s shorter attention span. Classes teach students reaction training, eye-hand coordination, and listening skills, along with a simplified martial arts curriculum.
The additional ranks at this level allow the Big Tiger students to progress at a more manageable rate which gives them more time to develop their martial arts skills.
The colored stripes on the Camo Belt are unique to Big Tigers. These belts fit in the standard ranking system between White Belt and Gold Belt.
