ISKKA Curriculum

Welcome to the International Shaolin Kempo Karate Association Curriculum page.

This page is designed to show the basic material for each belt level that has been set by the ISKKA. Please note that all ISKKA Charter Schools have the ability to break each of the colored belts down further into their own Kyus or stripe levels. The ISKKA requires that all material within a color level be covered before promoting a student to the next belt color. Schools may add additional material, or requirements as they see fit.

The Black Belt material is representative of the minimum requirements that have been set by the ISKKA. Schools will be required to hold to these minimums and to all other requirements that are set by the ISKKA. Please note that schools can freely add additional material to this curriculum as desired. The ISKKA encourages all schools and Martial Artists to reach beyond these minimums in their training and strive to expand their knowledge.
