Second Level: Orange Belt Dynamics

Building on Your Foundation:
  • Dynamic combinations - Link Yellow Belt techniques into flowing sequences
  • Tactical positioning - Understanding angles, distance, and timing
  • Enhanced mobility - More complex movement patterns and footwork
  • Integration focus - Connect strikes, throws, and evasions smoothly

Now that you've mastered Yellow Belt fundamentals, Orange Belt introduces dynamic flow. Instead of isolated techniques, you'll learn to chain movements together naturally and respond to changing situations.

This level marks a crucial transition—from learning individual tools to understanding how they work together. Your Yellow Belt techniques become building blocks for more sophisticated responses. Focus on smooth transitions rather than perfect individual movements.

Training emphasis: Watch how each technique can flow into the next. The goal isn't just to know more techniques, but to move with increasing fluidity and tactical awareness.
