October 21st and 22nd is the date for Belt Promotions. That means, it's getting very close! If you didn't know, Belt Promotions serves as a way to showcase the training that students have done over the last two months of martial arts classes and gives them an amazing experience. Our goal is to "pack the house" and make it so their forms performance is seen by over 100 people. There very few activities that people can do that have such a crowd draw as martial arts testing.
Black Belt testing will consist of Forms, Weapons, some sparring, and some board breaking. Recommended Black Belts will do the Orange Belt Form and Green Belt Form, spar, and break boards. First Degrees will do the Bahng Mahng Ee Form (short stick), and first degree black belt form (called Shim Jun). Second Degrees will do the Ssahng Nat Form (Kama), and Second Degree Black Belt form (called Jung Yul). Third Degree Black Belts will do the Ssahng Nat Form (Kama), and Third Degree Black Belt form (called Chung San). That testing will be on Friday October 21st from 5:30pm til ABOUT 7:30pm.
Color Belt testing will consist of Forms and One-Steps. Those students have learned and worked to perfect a challenging martial arts form and combinations they will use to spar. That testing will be on Saturday October 22nd from 10am til ABOUT 11am for White, Orange, and Yellow belts. The Camo through Red Belt testing will be from 11:30am til ABOUT 1pm.
***Special note: Next cycle will be all about Self-Defense and freesparring. Camo belts and higher will need to have the Black Belt Club Sparring Package. If you would like to save some money, think about purchasing our "Certified Pre-owned" gear instead of new gear (unfortunately, there's not 100,000 mile warranty on this stuff). White through yellow belts will be training in Self Defense so it will be an important cycle!
