I’ve seen some utter dross over the last 30 years. And i guess it comes down to whether your instructor is interested in making money or passing on knowledge. The instructions that are only interested in making money will grade anybody as long as they pay their subs. We call those McDojos.
But on the other hand not all black belts are equal. Although there is a syllabus for each grade, for me, grading is about personal development. Some people are never gonna be able to do some of the fancy kick/foot work, but does that mean they’re not black belt material? For me, being a black belt is more than just being able to bang out the syllabus when asked.
Anyway, i could talk all day about grading, training and the like, but lets not derail the thread. |
