The time has come to renew or establish your membership with our regional Black Belt/Instructor Club, which is comprised of all Region 4 Black Belts and Cho Dan Bos (Black Belt Candidates) in good standing who desire to participate in any Region 4 testing for higher rank, sanctioned events, or social activities. These dues provide the region with the opportunity to do the following:
- Engage world-class individuals to participate in activities that continually educate and train our members toward our goal of Black Belt excellence.
- Coordinate self-improvement and social events of interest to our Region 4 community.
- Enable resources to flourish and to provide excellent services and activities to the members.
- Provide the ability to host certain activities and events for our members at a reduced cost or, in some cases, at no cost.
Annual Membership Dues are collected from each member and must be kept current to be in good standing with the Region. The amount is only $50 for one individual and $30 for each additional household family member, due at the beginning of the year.
For new Cho Dan Bos (navy blue belts) and transferring Black Belts, $50 is due before April 1st; a discounted payment of $37.50 is due if paid between April 1st and June 30, and $0 thereafter.
Black Belts who have not paid their dues by April 1 are delinquent and must become current to test for a higher rank. They may also be restricted from attending regionally sanctioned and club events or required to pay dues to participate. Dues can be paid only through the online JotForm registration.
If there are any problems with the JotForm registration site, contact Master Barron.
Thank you in advance for your prompt response.
