The layout of a standard children’s session includes:
Warm-up of 5-10 minutes including stretching and physical exercises, perhaps even a game designed to warm them up.
Technique/Drill/Training of 30 minutes includes instruction of the basic requirements (kicks, stances, foot manoeuvres, blocks, strikes, etc.); self defence techniques; forms and sets.
Grading/Syllabus Practice of 20-25 minutes splits class up into groups and children practice the materials and drills necessary for their next rank.
OPTIONAL – Games/Cool Down of 5-10 minutes. A variety of games may be played at the end of a session. This is a way to wind down and is offered as a reward for a well behaved and disciplined class, get to know fellow students and further develop balance, co-ordination and confidence.
