How To Use Our Badges

 Martial Art Achievement And Merit Badges

How to use our achievement badges.

Martial art achievement badges can be used in a variety of ways.  We have tried and tested the the following method.

Every 4 weeks hold a badge night evening. Students can do a small test on a certain technique, for example reverse punch. Perform the technique as standing basics and moving basics, then on the strike shield (punch bag), then do a simple one step sparring technique with a partner using a reverse punch and /or a self defence technique. Also make sure the student knows the name of the technique in the language of the martial art studied. If the student is not up to standard let them try again the next lesson. After the test students can choose the badge they want to achieve next time. This test can be simplified depending on the age of the child.

Attidude and effort badges can be given out at the instructors discretion.

Instructors can charge between £1.00 and £1.50 per badge test or incorporate into your monthly fees.

We also have attendance badges that are given out every 3 months. These badges go up to 2 years training. For 2 years plus there will be badges available later in the year.
