Uniform
Students will wear a traditional Taekwondo, or the special "Ki", uniform with the appropriate rank belt. (Women must wear either a plain white or black t-shirt.) A combination USA/Korea Flag patch may be worn on the left upper arm.
Class Schedule
Formal practice - exclusively Kimoodo
Tuesday 6:00 - 7:00 p.m.
Thursday 6:00 - 7:00 p.m.
Other classes may be added as need demands.
Testing for Rank Promotion
When requirements have been met and the instructor approves, the Kimoodo student will be eligible for Rank Promotion Testing on the same days and times as students in the Traditional program. Test requirements are specified in the curriculum. Rank Certificates will be issued.
Tuition
Tuition for the Kimoodo Program follows the same rate schedule as the Traditional Program. These Programs are considered to be 2 separate "Tracks". A student may follow a single track Program; that is, either Traditional Taekwondo or Kimoodo.
A student may choose a dual track program (in which case he/she will be responsible for the requirements of each Program). A discount will be offered.
A student who is undecided about which program to choose will be directed first to the Traditional Program. The first few month's experience will allow the student to make a good personal choice of direction to follow.
