pegasi Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Restrictions based on age depend on the style/school. In my school, an under 14 is granted a "poom" black belt, a red and black belt, not a "true" black belt. The granting of a "true" black belt comes at age 14 -16. The master instructor decides when it's appropriate. what goes around, comes around
Jiffy Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Zorbasan is absoloutly correct IMHO. Skill and understanding should be the basis for grading, not time. Irrelevant of weather it is long or short. The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.
legkicker Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 16 in Karate(style that I do)16 to even be a blue belt in BJJThe Muay Thai association I'm under has rank and I honestly don't know what the age requirements are for red and black sash. I have never seen anyone under 17 that was a red.
KamasandSais Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 i think if the person can test in two years its becuase he has the poteintail to be a black belt. "Sword-Chucks yo."Yes, thanks a lot guys. Hey, kamasandsais, that was something that you knew that I did not!! <---blackmail hahahahhaha bushido
