Skill Level Classification: If you have been training in any style of martial arts for the following time periods this would be your skill level for entry into any ISKA tournament events.

 

Novice: you have been training in any style of martial arts for 0-9 months

 

Intermediate: you have been training in any style of martial arts for more than 9 months up to 2 years

 

Advance: you have been training in any style of martial arts for more than 2 years and up to 4 years

 

Expert level: you have been training in any style of martial arts for more than 4 years

 

Black belts: if you have achieved your Black belt in any style you would be classified as expert level

 

For example: If you have been training for two years at a Taekwondo Club and have achieved your blue belt but you changed over to a Shotokan Club and started back at your white belt in this style, you would still be classified as advanced level as you have been training in martial arts for over 2 years. It is required that you enter into the ISKA tournament as an advanced skill level competitor.
