Grading Syllabus

Pick your class at the top, then find your belt on the rack. Your grading requirements and the terminology you need come up together.
| Term (Japanese) | Meaning | Order | |
|---|---|---|---|
Adds to the category selected above. Leave the term blank for prose lines such as the Dojo Kun. Existing fields save when they lose focus.
| Section | Item | Order | |
|---|---|---|---|
Adds to the belt selected above. A belt only shows the sections it actually has items in, so an extra section costs nothing on the grades that don't use it.
| Name | Order | Items | |
|---|---|---|---|
Order controls the order sections appear on a grade. A section still holding requirements can't be deleted — clear its items first.
| Belt | Name | Order | Advanced terms | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
The swatch is drawn from the belt name, so write colours and tags the way they're graded — “Green Belt 1 Brown Tag”.
