Members have three choices in studying our curriculum:

1. Earn a black sash by starting at white sash curriculum and moving up the ranks. Earning rank requires practice--it is not easy.

2. If only interested in one or two of these arts, members can attain certification in individual arts. Earning certification requires practice--it is not easy.

3. Members who aren't interested in certification or rank can just enjoy the site content and learn as they please.
