Pre-Thought Questions
These questions are given to candidates to reflect on before the black belt test.
1st° Junior Black Belt
1. The Student Creed
What is the Student Creed, and why do you think we start with it?
What does it mean to you personally?
2. The L.A.W.S. of the Scholar and Warrior
Can you tell someone about the L.A.W.S. of the Scholar and Warrior?
Why do you feel these values matter — not just in training, but in life?
