Belt Rank & Promotions

All Tae Kwon Do students are expected to test and advance in belt level. Promotions are generally held every couple of months. Promotional fees should be paid prior to the promotion.

When students double promote, their fee includes the cost of the level they skipped as well the level of their promotion. Students who miss regular scheduled promotion and wish to do a make-up will be subject to an additional $10 fee.

If you have been training consistently, you should expect to participate in every promotion. Increases in rank are very incremental. Students must receive two stripes on their current belt to advance to the next belt. You should consult the belt requirements posted on the bulletin board and in the website for a list of the techniques you will be expected to know for promotion. Please check with your instructor if you are not clear on any of the requirements.

Other important things to remember for promotion:

§ Your uniform should be clean and pressed with all appropriate patches.
§ Be sure to be in your uniform and ready to start promotion at the time listed.
§ Know all your requirements and the student creed.
§ Try not to be too nervous, project confidence & do your best.
