G95champ Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 Our Black Belt test usually consistes of Kanku Dai and 2 other kata most of the times its Bassai Dai and Hangetsu but the 2nd and 3rd Tekki are sometimes used as well. We usually save Empi, Jion, Jittie, etc for post Dan training. In our classes we send the people below Brown belts home 15mins or so early now. All the high ranks do 20 kata in about 30mins. Great training and it keeps us all fresh. We do 5 Heian, 3 Tekkie, Both Bassai's and Kanku's, Jion, Jittie, Hangetsu, Chinttie, Wankan, Gankanku, Empi, and Giin. (General George S.
