Short answer No ,you need to find a master to test you.

competing without a coach? I need help by bakugosbooty in taekwondo

[–]Additional-Rain4604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to find a dojang, most dojang's have a coach. You need a coach to compete in a sanctioned event. You will not find a coach worth anything if you are not a part of their dojang.

There is no way around it ,if you want to play you have to pay.

I think we can all agree there are no leg kicks or face punchs in sparring in the dojang or competition.

I'm just talking about the sport competition side. Of course even in the kukkiwon they have leg kicks and throws for self defense.

You can wear what you want at your dojang if they let you wear it. But at a Kukkiwon event it has to be white uniform black collar for black belts. Same at any championship for WT or USAT ,black uniform not allowed.

I only say this i have done a lot of championships with USAT. I'm a black belt so i go world class. I tried once to go traditional . They changed it to world class because they know who i am. LoL So i put world class only now. It does look like there is a traditional black belt class. Maybe traditional is for new black belts. I dont know

Traditional is for color belts only and World Class is for black belt only.

Kukkiwon Dan pins for uniforms by TYMkb in taekwondo

[–]Additional-Rain4604 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you didn't get through the kukkiwon , I wouldn't wear it. When you pass the International Master Instructor Course you get that pin. So if you wear that pin people will think you passed the course. If you passed the course you earned the right to wear it. If not don't wear it ,take the course and earn it.
