It depends on the dojo you are at. Some require black belts to pay, some don't. Some dojo's pay their instructors to teach and some do not. At our dojo, we have a "continued black belt" study program, so the student has monthly dues to keep receiving training. On the other hand, the ones that are qualified to teach and make it onto the teaching staff, receive money for teaching classes.

I was in a situation where I had to pay tuition as an assistant inst. . What made it tolerable was that I taught the first class and was a student at the second, so I was still learning and had the teaching experinence. However, if you don't have that time to be the student I feel that you shouldn't have to pay to help someone.

A Black Belt is just a white belt that don't know when to quit!

It varies from school to school. My first instructor let me train without paying tuition because I taught beginner classes for him. I've had instructors since that charge no matter what. As long as I receive my training it really doesn't matter to me. Teaching someone else is not the same as you being trained. You can learn more about techniques you already know by showing them to someone else but you obviously can't learn a technique from your system without it being taught to you first.

A block is a strike is a lock is a throw.
