Belt Test Results

The Belt testing held on Dec 4th was a success. Every passed their exam. We did have a couple of close calls but everyone did well. We are being stricter than before and following the WTF testing guidelines. We want our students to advance but we also have to uphold standards. Some allow us more flexibility in their interpretation but we are moving more to the "letter of the law" so's to speak so there is no ambiguity.

So, Congratualtions to all examinees on  their advancement. You earned it.

The next test cycle is scheduled for March 5th (Saturday) at 10:00 AM. We will have more information as we get closer to test time. Also if we can find the time we will post  rank requirements here so they can be referenced online.

Train Hard, Train often.
