Certified Instructor

Once you've completed your Certified Instructor Training programme, you graduate to the position of Instructor (Black Suit). As an Instructor, you have a position of respect in all classes of Qi Kwan Do, and are encouraged to visit as many schools, gradings, and events as possible. Often Instructors will be seen managing gradings, and teaching occasional classes. Qi Kwan Do Instructors are keen to share their knowledge, to motivate those around them, and work hard to prepare to become Chief Instructors and School Owners.

When prepared to step up to a larger role within Qi Kwan Do, Instructors become Chief Instructors. Chief Instructors will often organise events, sit on the judging panel at gradings, and when they feel ready, are able to open their own school and become a School Owner.

All Instructors, Chief Instructors, and School Owners train regularly with Grandmaster Parisi and Master Coles to ensure their skills and knowledge are up-to-date, and are held to a high standard of professionalism and responsibility.
