Why was it difficult? Frankly, I'm at a loss why everyone isn't relieved he is gone. First off, it sounds like you depend on student fees to stay open...and so have a limited ability to show students the door. Be glad he moved on, instead of being a whiny thorn in everyone's side.

Just my take.

Yes, we knew it was a mistake. Nobody's perfect. It was a difficult situation.

Leaves fall.

This is the reason (well, one of them) why I like the idea of a 'Guest Belt' completely outside the normal colors. 'You have some unspecified training in a different school, but you arent ranked here.. here, wear this black-and-white stripe belt till you test.'

When you join our dojo, you start as a white belt, period. I have had many black belts walk away once they knew our rules. But the good ones stayed.

I had a legitimate sixth dan start over as a white belt. If you don't know our system, how can you teach our system?

I never considered that before. That's a really, really good idea. I can see that solving a lot of problems.

If your style doesn't have a camo belt, that would awesome. Be like "you're camouflaging your true rank to keep the others guessing-- like a ninja". My instructor tried that line on me when I was in middle school and came back after a several year gap. He made me wear a white belt until I got up to my previous rank (yellow belt-- which in our kids' program is the fourth belt) but he would tell me I'm a ninja yellow belt masquerading as a white belt to throw everyone off. I LOVED it.
