I was just curious as to what other schools require thier students to know for each belt/sash assuming they have a belt/sash system or at least for thier black belt. This is what I teach. Most of the things I learned were/are from my teacher (John Dufresne). Other things I learned from other teachers and decided it was worth while to teach. But I would like to state that all the people that I have learned from are either students of Dufresne's or of Grandmaster Wing Loc Ng.
