@fischerrrrrr damn right. Belts are used too much to be a source of "i'm better than you" rather than an actual source of indicating skill. I only obtained my low brown in shotokan, but i've beaten the shit out of several black belts in both that and other styles, and i've been tossed on my ass by some BJJ white belts before i started training BJJ as well.

Who cares about black belt? I am 3rd kyu brown belt in shotokan and I have been training since 1999 and I dont play around. I also practise judo to get some grappling experience. Karate is in your head and heart, not in the stupid belt.

@reddy73 no bloodriotoroi is definitely correct...
-
anyone talking about getting a black belt in shotokan in less than 6 years is at a mcdojo or paying extra money to a corrupt grader lol... shotokan is one of the most detail-oriented and disciplined arts there is. you cannot truly master it unless you practice 4+ times a week for at least 6 if not 7 or 8 years...

It took me 6 years to get mine..and I am 22 years old.........Shotokan is hard work. It took me 6 years. I started with my gran uncle at 13 and when I got to 17 I joined the scool. U need to practice everyday.I love it.

I once heard that in 'feudal' Japan, Karate started out with white belt. After years of toil and practice, gradually, their white belt would get dirty with dust and sweat. After so long, it would become so dirty, it was almost black. Black is an accomplishment that should take a lifetime to truly succeed in. I know a girl that is black belt but doesn't have sharp form, and can't remember some basic Kata. Black belt is the result of years of work and commitment.

Maybe in the american "dream" style shotokan you can reach black belt in 3 years or less, but in the traditional japanese way even if you good should practice over years at least 5-6 to get it becuase practice necessary to be good in karate. (I have avarage skills in this style for almost 7 years and I have "just" 1 kyu yet, but I know if one they I will have the black belt, I earned it.)
