Belts / Rank

All future and past members returning after an absence of two years or more have rank priviledges suspended unitl review. These priviledges include all authority over junior members and class leadership usually based on seniorship; and are required to wear a rope in place of their regular belt for a time to be determined by a Tetsunami Certification Board review. The rope will identify to other classmates not to engage the returning students until their clearance is assured. This policy includes holders of teacher's certificates and clearance to teach in our schools.
