Now, does that still justify a fee?

Its a wrong way to raise money for the school. Seminar would be better. So if you are a white belt for 16 months and tapping out blue belts and you dont go to this, you dont get a blue belt, ever, till the next "belt promotion day"
My friend got his purple a few months ago, the instructor tossed it to him after class, when he was done rolling, he ya go. Then all the students lined up and flipped him. When u advance a belt, many schools have the other students flip the student or take him down, we do, his school does and so I assume otheres do
