Tiny Tigers - Ages 4-6 "Every Kid is a Winner! Every Kid is Special!" Our Tiny Tigers program is directed towards children in the 4-6 age category (maturity level is a factor). This program is modeled after our internationally recognized Karate for Kids Program but has a few differences based on the needs of preschool children. This program offers children a strong foundation in essential character qualities such as courtesy, respect, and discipline. In addition, the program is designed to improve children's motor skills, balance, coordination, and enhance their ability to pay attention and follow directions. All classes are taught using the most safe, fun, and exciting instruction methods available for this age group (keeping in mind that children learn best through play). As this program works in conjunction with the Karate for Kids program, the same important monthly themes and value system are emphasized.

Just like in the Karate for Kids program, Tiny Tigers have their own unique victory patch and "Victory Stars." The Victory Patch and Stars are part of the positive behavior re-enforcement system found in the Karate for Kids program, with slight modifications in recognition of the preschool age of the child. Blue Stars are given in class for good behavior, following directions, and personal achievements. Silver Stars are given for special recognition either at home (demonstrating a monthly theme, positive behavior, or great attitude) or in their preschool. Gold Stars are for Positive reports from preschool teachers. Red Stars are for tournament participation. Four different colored victory patches are available to accommodate all the stars that can be earned by a high achieving Tiny Tiger. There is a new patch for every 25 stars collected. Except for the logo, the four victory patches of the Tigers are the same as the Karate for Kids patches. Upon graduation from the Tiny Tigers program into the "Big Kid" program, Tigers are afforded the opportunity to wear the "Big Kids" or "Karate for Kids" patch. The rank and testing system used by the Tigers is slightly different than that of the Karate for Kids in consideration of their ability to learn and attention span. Tigers can earn six collectable animal patches to display on their belts as follows: The Tiger - Orange Belt The Cheetah - Yellow Belt The Lion - Camo Belt The Eagle - Green Belt The Phoenix - Purple Belt The Dragon - Blue Belt All six patches, as earned, can be displayed on the child's belt.
