Pre-Test

We are going to try a new policy for our pretesting procedure.  On Friday, July 2nd at 6:30pm all kids testers will have a pass or fail pre-test. 

Please remember, students must meet all class requirements, sparring requirements and curriculum requirements to be eligible for the graduation.  Students who do not pass the pre test will wait until the next graduation rotation. 

This will ensure consistency with curriculum requirements and eliminate the need for instructors and floor space during regular class time.

If you cannot make the pretest, then other arrangements can be made.  Students, please be prepared for this test.  If you are unsure of your curriculum, then ask an instructor to help you out and we will be happy to.  You must pass the pre-test in order to graduate.  Graduation night is July 7th, at the Holiday Inn.

The pre-test will be held here at I.M.A.  We will have several instructors on the floor working with small groups.  Students who are well prepared may be in and out within 10 minutes, however be prepared to be here for up to 45 minutes or longer.

      Black Belt test usually take between 2 and 3 hours.  They will demonstrate everything they have learned up to this point and more.
This is a great opportunity for students to show their support and learn a little more about what it takes to become a black belt.

      After the test, the families of the candidates would like to invite everyone out to a BBQ for a celebration. There will be more info on time and place of the celebration, but we do ask that everyone RSVP at the front desk.
Please bring a dish to pass and a swim suit because there is talk of a water fight.
