Belt Ranking

Our Ranking System has been set up in proportion to the amount of time we are able to see our students through the course of a semester.  Most of the students will advance in rank.  The requirements for advancement are as follows:  Effort, Participation, Perfect Attendance (missed lessons can be made up), Positive Attitude, and Self Defense skills.
