THE KALI CIRCLE   |   CURRICULUM   |   HISTORY   |   INSTRUCTOR TEAM   |   GRADING SYSTEM   |   BEIRUT CAMP 2019


The Kali Circle syllabus is designed to gradually increase knowledge as the body gains confidence. The aim is to give the student the solid foundations on which he’ll build up his personal style at Kadua Guro.

There are six grades up to Kadua Guro in the Kali Circle, then four Instructor grades and two Master ranks. In the first six grades there is the seed of all the advanced techniques needed at the highest levels.

Grading is essential to improve in Martial Arts. It is only under pressure that the student becomes aware of what he knows for the level he’s at and what he needs to work on.

The Kali Circle expects a high technical level of every student and Instructor.
