Rank Promotions American Tiger Karate Academy is an official branch of SKIF-USA, a division of SKIF International, headquarters honbu dojo in Japan, teaching authentic Shotokan Karate in it's entirety. The SKIF curriculum is universal, in that it is one of the very few martial arts left in the world whose skill requirements for each level are virtually the same from school to school, state to state, country to country, as it has been passed down for generations. This insures the authenticity of the art of karate, quality, proper training, accountability of the instructors as well as the value of the practitioner's skill. Learning Shotokan Karate, Okinawan Kobudo or any other authentic Martial Art is a journey that takes time, patience and effort of mind, body and spirit. It is an individual journey and is not intended to compete with others for levels of achievement, as each person learns and develops at his/her own unique pace. Evaluations for rank promotion are held 3 - 4 times throughout the year. Evaluation dates are posted on the information boards in the dojo as well as on the calendar section of this website. Stripes on a belt represent honorable effort and acheivement
