References *

We require two references — one professional and one personal. The Kumite Lifestyle team represents real people in our community, and the professionals who carry that responsibility must be vouched for. Both references must be available to speak on your behalf if contacted.

Professional Reference

Colleague, supervisor, or client who can speak to your professional credibility and work ethic

Personal Reference

Someone who knows you well — not a family member — who can speak to your character and integrity

By submitting this application you confirm that both references have agreed to be contacted on your behalf.

I understand that joining the Kumite Lifestyle team is a serious professional commitment. I confirm that the information I have provided is accurate, that my references have agreed to be contacted, and that I am prepared to serve this community with integrity, consistency, and excellence. I understand that acceptance is not guaranteed and that all final decisions rest with the Kumite Lifestyle team.

Every application is reviewed personally by the Kumite Lifestyle team. Thank you for your interest in being part of this mission.
