Uniforms and Equipment
|
| |
- UNIFORMS - All students are required to wear a uniform once they have passed their white belt test. The uniform is required by the first night of class after the white belt test is passed. These uniforms are classic martial arts styles, roomy construction of heavy cotton with reinforced seams to withstand the rigorous demands of Tae Kwon Do instruction. Regular athletic clothes are not designed for Tae Kwon Do.
- FOOT PADS - Foot pads are highly recommended for protection of the top of the foot. These are highly recommended by the time a student reaches their yellow belt.
- HAND PADS - Hand pads are highly recommended by the time a student reaches their green belt.
- MOUTH GUARDS - Mouth guards are required before the student can spar.
- OTHER
REQUIREMENTS:
For the male student, a groin cup is required before the male student can spar in a tournament or at open
gym. For the female student, groin protectors and special chest protectors are available (by special order), but not required, for the youth and adult female student who competes in sparring.
- ELBOW PADS - Elbow pads are required for open gym and any Lee's Tae Kwon Do tournament. Elbow pads are highly recommended for ALL tournaments.
- OTHER
EQUIPMENT - duffel bags, heavy bags, shields, targets, patches, and other equipment are available at any time. We suggest that these items be used as rewards for good deeds or special achievements, and as birthday or Christmas gifts. They can be purchased at any time if in stock or by special order.
- SHOES- Limited sizes of Tae Kwon Do Shoes are in stock. Any size can be special ordered. These are available to any adult student purple belt or higher and youth Pooms (Junior Black Belt).
- We can get any martial arts equipment.
There are many magazines and mail order services that make a wide
variety of martial arts items available. We guarantee that we can
get anything for you and can meet any retail price or at least
save you the shipping charges with our volume purchasing. Please
support Ultimate Kicks Tae Kwon Do by purchasing your equipment
through us rather than a large corporation or mail order company.
This allows us to purchase equipment for the gym and to keep our
equipment in good condition so it can be used for your training.
