For students
Curriculum
To reach a new belt there are certain things you need to know. The curriculum is the list of them.
As a taekwondo student you need to know a number of Korean words and phrases, techniques such as strikes, kicks and blocks, and set patterns of techniques (poomsae).
To keep track of it all we work from a curriculum listing what you need to know. So for green belt (7th kup), for example, you need everything up to and including green belt.

Mon curriculum
The club’s own curriculum for the mon grades — the belt system for our youngest students.
If a link is out of date, or something is missing from the curriculum, tell your instructor — or write to the board.
How to use the curriculum
The curriculum is not something to read through on your own at home. It is an overview you can use to keep track of what you still need before your next grading — and to look up the Korean names when they will not stick.
If you want to check whether it has sunk in, we have made a quiz for every belt.
