Hi everyone, this is my first post so i thought id say Hi and that im really glad to have found thos forum.
So basically iv just started Kyoushin Karate!. Im almost 19 but was unable to do it as a child as it wasnt where i lived. But now i have the opportunity and im going to take full advantage of it!
At the moment im planning on training 2 - 3 times a week. I was just curious as to how long it takes to get from white - black belt. I dont plan on rushing anything i was just wondering what sort of time frame it is. Also if anyone could please explain the system of the stripe on your belt? I read (on wikipedia
) that after a grading you may get a stripe on your belt instead of getting a new colour. From what i see our Dojo grades 3 times this year for white - intermediate. and 2 times a year for advanced. does that mean ill be getting 3 new colours next year?
Thanks alot. sorry if i have mad any mistakes im new!
