Once a student passes their yellow stripe test, it is time to get sparring gear. The school has WT compliant head and chest protectors that will be shared and cleaned between uses.
The students will need to purchase the World Taekwondo compliant sparring gear on this list:
- forearm,
- shin,
- gloves
- footgear
- mouthguard
- groin protection
Students attending sparring class are subject to a gear check. If the student does not have the required gear, they may not be allowed to participate.
THE MOUTH GUARD CANNOT BE ANY SHADE OF RED. Red, orange, purple, pink are not acceptable and the student will not be allowed to spar.
ALL genders will need to purchase groin protection to be worn under the uniform. Our instructors use this particular brand, but anything similar should work.
Students may wish to obtain their own WT compliant head and chest protectors. Contact any instructor to place an order to take advantage of the wholesale club discount.
