Kids Belt Test: August

The test is cumulative, it covers everything you have learned since day one… not just the recent material.
Belt tests take place at Lakewood Dojo.
The only exception to this is if your child is a ZOOM online student only. All other students must test In Person. Zoom tests must be arranged ahead of time with Sensei Genevieve. Email info@dallaskenpo.com ahead of time to arrange a test for a Zoom-only student.
