Master Club (MC)

Master Club is another program developed by the ATA. This program is for student who have committed to training even beyond Black Belt. As with the Black Belt Club Program (BBC), the Master Club Program is open to all students regardless of rank or age. It also represents the highest level of our "Success through Goal Setting" philosophy, these student just see beyond Black Belt. Master Club students wish to train at a higher level and with more intensity. These students have a great conviction and a belief in themselves and their growing love for martial arts. As with our Black Belt Club Program, Master Club will receive a special Master Club Patch that is worn on their right sleeve, as well as their Black Belt Club Patch, which is worn on their left sleeve of their uniforms. They will also receive their rank belt with a gold stripe through the center of the belt. These patches and belt act to remind the student of the commitment that they have made each time that they dress for class.

Master Club members are also considered apart of Black Belt Club this is why they still wear the BBC Patch on their left sleeve. This means that they are welcomed to attend any and all BBC Open Workouts, and receive "Black Belt Training", as well. In addition to the BBC Training, Master Club member have their own Master Club Open Workout offered weekly as well (See our Schedule). Master Club Open Workouts offer these students opportunities to training with "Advanced Black Belt Training", such as Double Ssahng Jeol Bong (Nunchakus); Double Bahng Mahng Ee (Short Sticks); Shinai (bamboo sword), and Kickboxing, in addition to those topics from BBC.
