Black belt Testing and Promotion Requirements

From the Member School Manual
Student's Eligibility to Test


All students of an affiliated Taekwon-do International school are entitled to participate in belt testings sponsored by the member schools. They must be members of good standing at the member school and have completed the minimum requirements for the grade level they request. These requirements include proficiency in the required patterns, step sparring, sparring and breaking, as well as "time-in-rank" (explained below) and a minimum age requirement. Continuing character development consistent with the five tenets of Taekwon-do (courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit) is also a significant part of the achievement required at each grade level.

Lower belt students may test about every two months. Black Belt students in Taekwon-do International must satisfy a minimum time (or "time-in-rank") requirements as follows:
