DOJANG TRANSFER
Moving is a LOT of stress already, and finding a new Taekwondo school can be very daunting. We hope this page can help you successfully find a new Taekwondo family!
Below, you will find our recommended steps to take and some tips to follow.
STEPS FOR SUCCESSFUL DOJANG TRANSFER
STEP 1
Find out your moving details!! When are you moving and what will be your address?
Please let us know ASAP so we can take care of billing and have more time to help you with step 2.
STEP 2
Look up schools near your new address and send us their website addresses. We prefer to do it this way because if we recommend schools in your town, we don't know if it's 20 minutes away from your new home or one hour away.
STEP 3
Once we get the website links, we will check through and maybe even call the owner/master there to find out more details. There is no guarantee that they will honor your rank UNLESS you are a black belt and they are a Kukkiwon-certified school.
STEP 4
(1-2 weeks before moving)
Before you move, we will write you a transfer letter that details what rank you were at WMA and what poomsae correlates to our belt system here. Even if the school is the same style as us, they may have a different belt rank system before black belt. Remember that different does not mean bad and you may need to start at a lower rank.
STEP 5
(after you arrive)
If possible, try to get into a new school ASAP! If you are a few months out of practice, it is more likely you will need to start at a lower rank since you will have forgotten your techniques. We understand it may be difficult if you are busy with moving, but especially for children, it can be very discouraging to be out of practice.
STEP X
You may need to try multiple schools. Again, different does not mean bad!! Many prior students have told us that not many dojangs can match what we offer at WMA.
