The examination demands are set up using as much as
possible a logical order in difficulty and in correspondence to the
techniques for a degree. Kihon (basic techniques), kumite (excercises) and
kata (forms) reflect to eachother.
A big source for this are of course the many "different"
examination demands from other wado schools and organisations.
The Israeli Wado ryu karate association has 8 "kyu" degree
preparing for the black belt examination of Shodan (1st dan).
