How do you get to the belt exams?

You can get to the belt exams by collecting enough practice marks from the previous belt exam. We calculate training visits based on recorded workouts, so remember to log your exercise every time you go to the gym. 

The prerequisite for entering the exam is also that you know the things required in the exam at a sufficient level and follow the rules of conduct in the gym during the exercises.

You do not need to register for the exam in advance. However, please let us know if you are not going to participate in the exam after receiving the invitation.

What is required in the belt test?

In the belt exam, you need to know the technical requirements of the exam and the sets of movements. The requirements of the previous exams also still have to be mastered. You can find the technical requirements in the training instructions on the hall wall.

We are currently updating the belt test requirements. After the update work, they will also be available in electronic form.

How should you prepare for the exams?

The best preparation for the exam is to attend training actively and versatile. For example, enthusiasts who emphasize match training should also attend basic training from time to time, and correspondingly, those training in basic hobby groups should deepen their skills in the form of match training and movement sets.

Movement sets should be practiced especially well, because they gather almost all the techniques required in the exam and embody the ability of the enthusiast to rhythm the techniques and generate strength in them. After learning a new movement sequence, repeat it as much as possible.

In the weeks before the exam, movement sets are also repeated more than usual in training. 

What does the exam cost and how is it billed?

You can find our belt test price list:

We will invoice you for the exam by email after the exam.

New poom values

Most of the young people who have just started their vacation certainly spent the hot summer Sunday as relaxed as possible. However, this was not part of the plans of Eddie, Sara, Plum and Luca, who sweated in front of the others in the five-hour poom test. Of these, the last mentioned earned the 1st poom and the others already grabbed the second poom degree. Eddie just turned 15, of course we have to talk about the Danes.

Petteri and Pauli had planned some kind of challenges for the experimenters, but these were accepted with determined self-confidence. The group's attitude and cheer remained from start to finish, even though the clock may have felt like it was passing painfully slowly. It was also a pleasure to notice how the test subjects performed in the test specifically as a group.

Big congratulations to the test takers! The belt values have been earned and now you can rest for a while with a clear conscience. :)

October belt exams in a package

In the belt tests of taekwondo athletes, great skill and technical skills

The October belt exams were delivered comfortably before the school holiday week. For many junior enthusiasts, the start of the holiday was an exceptionally tasty new belt value under their armpits.

The adult groups took their first belt test, and this time there was a fairly small group of test takers. The experiment was directed and evaluated by Pauli, who was very satisfied with the group's performance. The technical know-how clearly exceeded the belt test requirements, and as the test progressed, even the tsempi was found better and better. Friday the 13th was really not an unlucky day, at least in the Taekwondo athletes' hall, when the juniors completed their belt test. The tests were directed by Petteri Pauli, who was judging next door. The level of all groups was good, and it was especially gratifying to see a clear development curve for both individuals and groups.

Taekwondo athletes congratulates those who have passed their new belt values!

New dan values for taekwondo athletes

Severi had to hold the ball in the ceiling for Christian's flying back spin kick

The examinees and the examiner after a successful dan exam

On Saturday, September 23, 2017, belt exams were held at the Taekwondo athletes' hall for the first four black belt tryouts and two who are increasing their dan rank. The seven-hour sweat job with ceremonies was crowned at eight in the evening, when the former red belts got the darkest belt on their hips. The whole group passed the belt exam with flying colours, and despite the occasional heavy fatigue, the faith in their own doing remained amazingly well in the end, even though the organizers of the belt exam, Teemu Heino and Juho Kostiainen, tried their best to challenge the test takers and sometimes even slightly open the door to disbelief.

It was gratifying to see how the trainees' understanding of technique, power output and fighting in its various forms has developed to a level that entitles them to a black belt. In both forms of competition, in the series of moves and in the match, the overall performance was strong. Of course, specialization in these forms of sports was visible in the tests in both directions, but on the other hand, it would be worrying if it was not visible. When the performances were good across the board even in the weakest part, you can be satisfied with the test also from the sports club's point of view.

Christian's flying back spin kick was seen dozens of times during the test

It's always a celebration when more black belts are added to the club. Our club, now six years old, is in a situation where enthusiasts who have started with us are increasingly becoming aware of the value of a black belt, and the number of black belt test takers will probably increase in the coming years. Good luck with your new black belts! Remember that the road is just beginning!

On September 23, 2017, they successfully increased their belt value

  • Matti Sairanen, 3rd dan
  • Christian Kamphuis, 2nd dan
  • Severi Sarala, 1st dan
  • Enni Jaakkola, 1st dan
  • Sami Leskinen, 1st dan
  • Aleksi Väyrynen, 1st dan
