Rank & Promotion

SFA Martial Arts is sanctioned by the World Tang Soo Do Association.  SFA student rank is recognized by the WTSDA.  Testing and promotion occurs every session.  Deserving "Little Dragon" students are awarded "belts" during the last scheduled class of each session.  WTSDA Students, who have been previously notified of eligibility, can test for their next belt.  Students who successfully pass will be recommended for WTSDA recognized promotion and will receive their certificate of rank and "belt" in a ceremony conducted early in the subsequent session.  Testing begins at 7:00pm.  Advanced Rank Students may stay until 8:30pm or later. 

All students testing need to complete testing and membership (if not already a WTSDA member) paperwork prior to the test date.  Forms will be provided by the Head Instructor.  Completed forms may also be emailed to sfatsd@sbcglobal.net  (please contact the Head Instructor for directions) or turned in at class.  Test fees are $15 per test.

In order to be promoted to a new rank/belt, students must be a member of the World Tang Soo Do Association.  A one time fee of $25 must be paid for gup membership.
