AmKor Collegeville
runs testing every 3 months on Saturdays. Students
will be informed by the instructor when they are
ready to test. A list of all students to test
will be posted outside of class approximately
two weeks before testing. Please inform Master
Matys if you will not be able to attend testing.
Make-up testings are available and are held the
month after the standard testings. For more
information is provided to the right to help the
student know what is required for each Gup testing. |

Our requirements are set by the AmKor Karate Institues headed by Master Frederick
Scott, 7th Dan, Chief Instructor of the Amkor Karate
Institutes. General testing is held 4 times per
year for under Black Belt ranks. Testing is required
for advancement to higher belt ranks, but is not
mandatory to continue training. Students may elect
not to test from time to time. Higher rank at our
schools is viewed as taking on more responsibility.
It should also be stated that students do not automatically
become eligible for promotion simply by fulfilling
physical or time in grade requirements. Standards
at our schools are high, with character and personality
development, along with physical skills, figured
into promotion eligibility. The Martial Arts we
teach at our schools was learned from the highest
authorities on our style of Karate in the world
and is not watered down by faulty transmission of
the knowledge or commercialism. For over 26 years,
we have given our students what they earn regarding
promotion, and what they expect and pay for, a quality
Martial Arts education. |
