We have pushed back the Black Belt testings to allow students the opportunity to resume in-person training and help bridge the gap between the last few months of virtual training and the live experience. This is a big event in the lives of our students and we want to give them every opportunity at success while still maintaining the integrity of the test.

This will be an in-person event at Montgomery. Parts will be run outdoors and parts will be run indoors. We will provide a livestream link for students’ families for the indoor portion. Unfortunately, due to capacity limitations, we are not permitted to have spectators at this event. We will provide full details of limitations/accommodations to families of candidates at the 2-day review. 

Due to current restrictions, there will be no sparring or contact drills at this event. These portions of the test will need to be made up over the next calendar year, before Decided Black Belt is achieved.
