Note: Geup certifications come directly from WTHA. Dan certifications will come directly from Kukkiwon or Korea Hapkido. Cost of Kukkiwon and Korea Hapkido Dan certification are based on fees at the time of certification. WTHA applies directly to Kukkiwon/Korea Hapkido and does NOT add middleperson fees.
Note: As the student moves through Dan ranks Kukkiwon and Korea Hapkido formal training events will be available, recommended, and required for higher Dan rank promotion to 5th Dan and above, as prescribed by the Kukkiwon and Korea Hapkido.
Note: WTHA does NOT add fees to Kukkiwon or Korea Hapkido required training. Fees associated with formal Kukkiwon and Korea Hapkido higher education courses are separate and independent of WTHA fees. The WTHA does not require additional “organizational” or “Kwan” fees or certification requirements. Kukkiwon and Korea Hapkido courses are sufficient qualifiers for WTHA training and promotion.
The World Taekwondo & Hapkido Association-WTHA offers progressive beginner to advanced Korean Martial Arts training with World Class Curriculum and World Class Credentials uniting and elevating practitioners with higher standards across the globe.
WTHA is above and beyond, you should be too!
