Thats the same way its done in the Japanese Martial Arts, but the beginners way is the advance way and vice versa. Yodan in Shotokan Karate-do.

i have something to ask...... What does it mean to be a black belt? does it mean you have mastered one form of the style or all the basics? or have you learned everything there is to know about the style? i really dont understand what it means to be a black belt in one style in each indavigule school

@ZuiQuanTheGodTso Being a Black Belt doesn't mean mastering the art. It does mean that you should have a high degree of proficiency in all of the basic and intermediate skills and be able to teach those skills to others. Black belt itself isn't the end of training but a new beginning because only when you have learned the introduction to any amount of knowledge do you know that you have much more to learn.

@ZuiQuanTheGodTso The black belt is all the colors of the previous belts combined. So yes it means you've mastered all the belts.
