Shizentai Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Friday night I walked into the dojo and saw that someone had put my name up on the Nafuda kake (the board with names and ranks). I thought to myself, ah, It's so nice to be welcomed in this new honbu where I have been training. I've only been here about a year, and I know they don't just add people right away, as the board only gets updated once in a very long while.Yes, It felt good to see my name up there with everyone else's .... until I realized that they had put my name under sho-kyu. I guess I forgot to show them my shodan certificate in their organization from 2005. hahaha, whoops. I guess I'm officially a whitebelt again. Anyway, do you guys use nafuda kake in your dojo? How often do you update yours? "My work itself is my best signature."-Kawai Kanjiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensei8 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Yes, we use the Nafuda kake. In my dojo, we manage it every 3 months; it's the OCD in me. In our Hombu, it's managed annually after our annual testing cycle in June/July!! **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJCKarate Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 We do use one in our Dojo. I'm a little more OCD though I guess, if someone is promoted, I update the board. Might be different if there were hundreds of names up there. We don't include white belts. http://i59.tinypic.com/1j3iba.jpg[/img] Reece Cummings Kodokan Cummings Karate Dojo 5th Dan, Matsubayashiryu (Shorinryu) Karatedo Kobujutsu 2nd Dan, Yamaneryu Kobudo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
