Blackbelt Club
Requirements / Advantages
The Blackbelt Club began in March 2008 to provide additional training for those students who wanted additional Technical Training to help them on their journey to Blackbelt.
Becoming a member of the Black Belt Club demonstrates your commitment to training and puts the message out to others that you are 100% committed to gaining your Blackbelt.
