stripes BLACK Belt - 1st Dan- It takes teenagers and adults at least 4 years to reach
this rank, the younger children longer--very few will reach this rank-most
will quite before reaching BB. I
challenge you to prove me incorrect. Black Belts are only awarded to
those that are a minimum of 15 years old. Less than 15 will be awarded a POOM
rank (Jr. BB). The
First Dan Black Belt Certificate cost $250.00. This
includes a signature Black Belt, a Black Belt certificate from Spencer's
Warrior Club and the Korean Kukkiwon
certificate too. The Black belt uniform
is extra and can
be ordered by me or the student. The prices vary from company and style.
Equipment required to get after a few months and aprox cost- see me for an
additional handout with info:
-helmet -chest pad -forearm
pads -shin/instep pads
-advanced students need boxing gloves
Myself and several students (white ~ Black belts) compete in
local-state-national and international competitions. This is not
required for promotion. However, if you compete in a State
Championship and win Gold in sparring by defeating opponents, color belts
will be awarded a field combat promotion to the next color belt rank. (Does
not include Black Belt) My son Matt won a bronze medal
(sparring) in 98 at the Jr TKD Nationals in Orlando, Fla. I
won a gold in sparring in the 94 nationals at the Atlanta Dome in Ga. Several
of our students have been Va.state champions over the past few years.
Spencer's Warrior Club is a member of Grand Master John Pellegrini's
