UNIVERSAL TAEKWONDO BROTHERHOOD, INC.
RANK CERTIFICATION
SPECIAL PRIVILEGES and
OPPORTUNITIES
All color
belts receive Universal Tae-Kwon-Do Brotherhood, Inc. certificates from the
Master Instructor according to the rank achieved by the student (the certificate
is issued when the student receives the color belt, not the color
stripe.)
All BLACK
BELT certificates from the ITF-C, are signed by Master Choi, Jung Hwa.
All BLACK
BELT certificates from the Kuk Ki
Won, are signed by Won-Sik Kang.
Those from the Chang Moo Kwan are
signed by Grandmaster Kim, Soon Bae.
The student must apply for Black Belt certificates from
the Kukkiwon and the Chang Moo Kwan simultaneously by filling out an appropriate application
form obtainable from Grandmaster Eugene A. Humesky, Director, or via his UTB
Master Instructor, and by remitting the certification fee established by the
corresponding organization. (Author's note: The fee for
the WTF is the same by going through the U.T.B. or by traveling to Korea and
getting it from the Kuk Ki Won.)
All members
are free to belong to any other Martial Arts organization provided they maintain
their status in their master style (U.T.B.) and their proficiency in that style
does not suffer in any way.

UTB,
Inc. and CMK color belt rank certificates are
$20.00
for each, regardless of the color belt. This is for full color belts only and
not for half-belts (stripes).
In order to
obtain WTF (Kuk Ki Won) and Chang Moo Kwan certification through Grand Master
Eugene A. Humesky, one must also be a member of the UTB, Inc. and you must
belong to the same TaeKwonDo style as he does, i.e. Chang Moo Kwan. In
addition, you and your students who are applying for the certificates have to
belong to the UTB, Inc. (yearly dues are
$20.00).
After a
successful completion of the testing requirements for the 4th Dan in the above
organizations, or by presenting copies of the 4th Dan or higher certificates in
the above organizations, the candidate may apply for a Master certificate in
Chang Moo Kwan through Grand Master Eugene A. Humesky. In a rare case, when
the applicant is personally well known to Grand Master Eugene A. Humesky and is
qualified for a 4th degree or higher black belt in Tae kwon Do, he can obtain a
Chang Moo Kwan Master certificate through Grand Master Eugene A. Humesky, at the
cost of $200.00 in the form of a cashier check or money order,
made out to the Chang Moo Kwan.
