Black Belt Prep Cycle Dates - 2009 #2

Our 2nd Black Belt Exam for 2009 will be held in November. Our goal is to successfully prepare as many of our Advanced Brown Belts as possible to successfully pass their BB Prep Tip Tests, their Flip Test, and ultimately their Black Belt Exam. With that end in mind, we are focusing on the BB Prep Cycle and have made it better than ever.

All Advanced Brown Belts must commit to attending all 12 BB Prep Classes, beginning with week #1. If you are absent from a BB Prep class please schedule a private lesson with a staff member within 1 week of the missed class to review that week's curriculum and stay on track. These are not Delta Lessons! BB Prep Privates must be scheduled with a BB Staff Member, not the Delta Team. BB Prep Privates are 15-20 minutes and cost $20.

*Students will not be eligible to Flip Test if they have not completed all 12 weeks of BB Prep!
