How does the belt grading system go in your country. In Turkey it goes.

 

White --6th Kyu

 

Yellow -- 5th Kyu

 

Orange -- 4th Kyu

 

Green -- 3rd Kyu

 

Blue -- 2nd Kyu

 

Brown -- 1st Kyu

 

Black

 

Black with a Dan Diploma -- Shodan

 

Black 2 Dan -- Nidan

 

..............................

 

In my country a dan is like a teaching license. It is given only to those who have 18 years of age. But you can be blackbelt without a dan. That is like betwwen Kyu and Dan.

 

Do you have red, purple, pre-black etc. belts in your country?

 

Do you have two Kyus wearing same colour?

 

Please let me know. Especially The Japanese system.

 

Thank You

white

 

yellow

 

gold

 

orange

 

green

 

purple

 

brown

 

probationary black (shodan-ho)

 

black (shodan)

 

For us when you have your shodan, you act as an assistant to the sensai, no official teaching... Rather annoying, the whole probationary thing. Sometimes it can take a year or two before you are allowed to test for your shodan. My dojo makes you work for it in every way shape and form.

Patience is a grand- either you can learn it or I can make you learn it.

I don´t think it depends on the country, just the style of karate (or other MA). But I´ve heard that in Japan you only get the brown and the black belts.

 

 

 

Anyway, in Shukokai it´s like this:

 

8 kyo: Yellow belt

 

7 Kyo: Orange belt

 

6 Kyo: Green belt

 

5 kyo: Blue belt

 

4 kyo: Purple belt

 

3 kyo: 1st Brown belt

 

2 kyo: 2nd Brown belt

 

1 kyo: 3rd Brown belt

 

 

 

And then The black belt with dans up to 6.
