UNIFORMS

Student uniforms are available for purchase any time before or after class. New students should try on and purchase a uniform during the first week of class.
  • ​Tiny Tigers - $45 +tax
  • Taekwondo - $55 +tax (includes all patches)

During the warmer months, a uniform t-shirt is available for purchase to wear as the uniform top to class. Full uniforms (not t-shirts) are still required for all rank testing events.

There are certain rules regarding proper dress for martial arts training. Be sure to check out the Uniform Rules, a quick video on How to Tie a Taekwondo Belt, and other useful resources on our Student Handbook page.

THE RULE OF 10

Character and Behavioral Expectations for All Martial Artists
1. I will be loyal to my school, my fellow students, and my family
2. I will be obedient to my instructor and their directions
3. I will be mindful to observe the school regulations
4. I will show respect for my seniors 
5. I will practice patience and courtesy to my juniors
6. I will make good choices and show good conduct
7. I will exercise control of all techniques so no person is injured or put in fear of injury
8. I will be faithful in attendance and arriving to class on time
9. I will be dependable when given responsibility
10. I will observe and diligently practice the 5 tenets of Taekwondo in and out of class
Picture
At the end of every 2 month training session we offer optional rank testing. These are major events, much like the big game that you have been practicing for. Students who are fully prepared to test will have the opportunity to earn their next belt. Testing is never required, but highly encouraged for those that are ready. 
​
Minimum Requirements:
  • Proficient at the current belt level
  • Demonstrating the tenets of Taekwondo in class and at home
  • Meets the minimum attendance requirements (at least 12 classes for white-green belts; at least 6 classes for Tiny Tigers)
  • Instructor approval is required​
​
All testing takes place at the main school (Mission Gym) located in Middletown.  Be sure to mark your calendar with our scheduled test dates. If you need to miss a test, that's okay! Not everyone is ready every time anyway. In fact, some ranks require longer training time. And all training helps students make progress toward their higher belt goals. There is no such thing as repeating a belt level.

Testing Fees
  • Tiny Tigers - $25+
  • Taekwondo - $45+

Test dates are on our calendar, always up to date and available at missionmartialarts.net/calendar.

Test applications can be submitted online at missionmartialarts.net/test. Check the calendar for application deadlines. Dates will also be shared in regular email communications.

Life Skills Curriculum

Mission Martial Arts is passionate about teaching valuable life skills along with practical martial arts skills.
One way we do this is with our Golden Words program. Each month our junior students (ages 12 and under) have an opportunity to earn a gold stripe on their belt by showing they have demonstrated our Golden Word in class and at home.

Look for a new Golden Words card in class each month.
