Dear Masters,

Le 7th World Congress of Vovinam-Viet Vo Dao will be held from May 26 to 29, 2012. Besides discussion and approval on various topics, this is also an opportunity for teachers to present themselves for rank exams or to sustain their thesis.

Currently, our estimate of the number of candidates is :

  • France : 5 candidates for the rank 4th Dang, 1 for 6th Dang (red belt 2nd CAP).
  • Senegal : 1 candidate for 5th Dang (red belt 1st CAP)
  • Ukraine :  1 candidate for 4th Dang
  • Belgium : 2 candidates for 4th Dang

 The World Council of Masters encourages you to register for examination because the master thesis, beyond the value of rank, represents a contribution that ennobles the culture of Vietnamese martial arts and enhances the world system of physical education.

We would like to remind you some details for belt ranking and thesis defense :
