Uniforms are only required for students who are yellow belts or higher. Students are expected to wear their complete uniforms to each class unless their instructor tells them otherwise. White belts do not need uniforms but they are welcome to wear them if they want. Depending on your rank there are different uniform options.
We wear traditional Karate Uniforms only. These uniforms have to be plain with no markings whatsoever. You are more than welcome to purchase you uniform on your own if it meets this criteria, otherwise you can ask your instructor and he/she will get one for you.
If you want an ECTA embroidered uniform please ask your Instructor.
