ninjanurse Posted June 30, 2003 Posted June 30, 2003 In my old school you trained without a belt for the first 3-4 lessons. You then "tested" for the white belt by demonstrating basic techniques and school ettiquette. No charge-Just a way to introduce them to goal setting.

granmasterchen Posted June 30, 2003 Posted June 30, 2003 i had to test for a white belt in some of the styles that i took but those were mcdojos......the only thing that i had to know was what dojo meant, and karate, and stuff like that and how to bow, that was it,.....and the guy wanted money.....I am glad that my background is in a good school That which does not destroy me will only make me stronger
Kirves Posted June 30, 2003 Posted June 30, 2003 In the style I studied, you had to know kihon (the basic techniques) for white belt. Then after that you had to learn a kata and it's bunkai for each color.
