what kyu are you now?

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

I have never heard about a Shotokan dojo that would incorporate breaking as any kind of worthy training method or as a grading requirement.

We did the whole breaking thing at around purple/5th kyu - brown/3 kyu. It was done mostly for demos.

In my dojo, it's usually only 1st kyus and dan grades who do breaking. Unless you're an adult, which in tht case you'll get to doit at quite low grades.

 

BTW, we usually only use breaking blocks.

We don't break

(General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."

Neither do we. What´s the point of breaking, anyway, besides that it looks cool?
