Is there a Shorin Ryu curriculum/belt requirements?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could post/link me to a curriculum regarding the strikes/katas you should know before entering the next belt.

From white belt to black belt, as I just joined.

Also, are all/most Shorin Ryu schools with the same kata/requirements?

That's where we come from in my Dojo I just joined. Thanks!

All depends on the system. This is a slight exaggeration, but Shorin Ryu is almost as broad as the term karate. Best thing to do is check with the school you are training at. Even the Matsubayashi branch of Shorin Ryu varies widely from system to system.

But in your system, you can find rank requirements in the Scaglione Red book and get an idea here:

Great school you joined by the way! You can look forward to some of the best Okinawan Karate training in the country.

Wow, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you very much! I sat for an hour and a half, and I loved it. It's a big change from the combat styles and Kung Fu systems I trained in.

Thanks again!

It is very old school Okinawan training. A heavy emphasis on kata and tradition. If you stick with it till at least San Kyu rank, you will grow to appreciate the value of the method of training greatly. Of course, the dojos are all one tight knit family if you will. Really good people train in the system.
