ramymensa Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Well, do some research It's imperative to know some things about your style and the dojo you work in. Try to get informed and you'll be able to make some plans and of course know more about something that's "eating" your time World Shotokan Karate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian_guy Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 In kickboxing we do not have a belt rank (even if the instructor sometimes says we will establish one soon). In my Tai chi chuan school it is just White (6th and 5th chi) Blue (4th to 1st chi) Black (1st to whatever chieh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
