hiddendragon98 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Any other isshinryu karateka out there can you give me an estimate on how long it takes to be a master at isshinryu? I know it takes a very very long time I'm just curious "walk on"-Bruce Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagnerk Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 How long is a piece of string?There is no standard answer, as everyone is different. What would you class as a Master?For me, I would say it takes a lifetime to master any art.

quinteros1963 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 A loooong time! The past is no more; the future is yet to come. Nothing exist except for the here and now. Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what's clearly is clearly at hand...Lets continue to train! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isshinryu89 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 3-5 Years minimum in my club to shodan, and your not considered a sensei until sandan and not really considered a master until well never really, its a life long journey not a race to the next belt. I have trained in Isshinryu for 3 years and am a nikyu hopefully testing for ikkyu in January. I also have several years experience in jiu jitsu and WTF taekwondo, so I have progressed fairly quickly in Isshinryu. Take your time learn all you can, make lasting friendships and most of all have fun! Being a Master is not nearly as much fun as the road to get there.
