Treebranch Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 So JJJ must be just like Bjj then, you really have to wait to earn your next belt. Right?Not to the same extent as BJJ. In JJJ you could easily earn BB in about 5 yrs with regular practice (2 to 3 days/wk).I've been practicing BJJ for 3 1/2 years now and will be earning my purple in a couple of months. It takes about 8 to 10 years for the average practitioner to earn a black belt.Not always true in either case. I've known a few guys who got their BB in 5 to 6 years in BJJ. I've been doing JJJ for 6 years and I'm nowhere near a BB.It depends on the schools.
