According to the IBJJF and CBJJ, earning a black belt takes five and a half years. however, different factors may additionally affect how long it takes to progress including

  • Charge of development
  • Adaptability
  • Understanding of strategies
  • Overall performance in Competitions
  • Class Attendance

There are individuals who are able to apprehend and grasp techniques greater quickly, allowing them to reap a black belt in much less than 5 and a half years. however, in fact, the average time to earn a black belt is ready ten years, sometimes even longer.

Brazilian jiu-jitsu, for the majority of us, is all about persistent hard effort. For the majority of practitioners, or more than 90% of us, a black belt should be earned after 10 to 15 years of hard training.

About 3 years or so depending on the style and the school.

It takes as long as it takes. You can't put a date on earning a black belt, because everyone is different. In most traditional Okinawan styles of karate it takes around 4 to 5 years.

If a place guarantees you a black belt in three years, run, don't walk, away!

I began learning TKD when I was 10 years old and I achieved my black belt in four years. However all the other black belts I know, who are all older than me, have taken longer to get their black belts. It depends how focused and determined you are, not to mention how seriously black belt is your goal and where it stands on a list of your life priorities. As a young person it was top on my list for the entire four years, as I had no job or important exams to worry about yet at that time.

This is almost impossible to answer as it depends on how often the student trains, how hard they train and how quickly they learn. Students who are more dedicated and train hard will obviously achieve their black belt before other less devoted students but to put a time span on it is difficult. I would say that even the most dedicated of students should train at least three years before being allowed to Dan Grade

I've been taking karate for 13 years. I started when I was 2 and I got my black belt when I was 11. I'm not saying it's gonna take you 9 years, but it is going to take a while. It also depends on the Dojo, not all Dojo's are going to give 11 year olds black belts and say they can teach, it takes time. Also, it's going to take a long time and a lot of tests to get Sensei, there's a lot of Kyu's and it takes time to get through them all.

I've been in Tae-Kwon-Do for two and a half years. I will hopefully get my red belt this summer. After that I have to wait a year to test for recommended black belt and then another year to get certified Black Belt.

This means it will have taken me just under five years to achieve black belt. This of course varies from person to person. I progressed fairly quickly, but others will take longer.

Depends on the style you do, I attempted my black belt after 4 years of training, my mum in 3. Some people take longer than others but it depends how passionate you are.

For example in Shotokan karate you only have to wait 6 months from the highest kyu grade to take your black belt. All styles are different.

I have been doing gojo ryu karate for 3 years and I'm going for my black belt in June 2011. Really it depends how committed and focused you are. Of course you need to have good Kata's but they give you it on your attitude as well. Sometimes you may need to wait until you have been training for 5 years before you go but I'm special

Some dojo's will get you a black belt within a couple years, but it's value is questionable in many places. While some will crank you through their system as fast as possible, others have set specific requirements and minimum times. In the style I study, three years has been set as the minimum, but the average is probably closer to five years then to three years. If you want to actually learn something you shouldn't be concerned with how fast you get a black belt. If you go to a good dojo you will achieve your black belt only when you are ready, and not a moment sooner.

If you practice everyday at least 1hour+ 7 to 10 year's if your teacher is good.

if you practice a lot 3 hour's+ a day 7 days a week u could get it in 5 to 7 year's.

Note... some teacher's give out black belts in 3 to 5 year's of training most of the time those teacher's aren't the best around

other things u should know is that just because you have a blackbelt doesn't mean your good at kung fu.

The answer to this question depends on the amount of practice that you are able to complete. It varies from person to person. It may take you 2 years, 5 years, or maybe even longer than that. Advancement is normally self paced.

It's different for everyone. There have been people who have been training for over 5 years who are still blue belts. Then there are people who got their purple belt in 2 years. It depends on the the individual, how much they train, how well they can roll, how well they can teach, the student's attitude, what the instructor's philosophy on belt promotions is, and so on. That said, the average amount of time it takes is between 3 and 4 years for a dedicated student who trains at least 3 times per week.

The IBJJF has specific requirements. In their system, you must be a blue belt for at least 2 years before you can be promoted to purple belt.

Well, the minimum time is 10 years. But it always takes more than 10 years to get the jiu-jitsu black belt.

How many belts are there in jujitsu?

At a dojo that i know of, they have this belt order: For kids: White White/yellow stripe White/orange stripe White/green stripe Then they stay there until 16 and then get a blue belt. If they have been there for a long time, they can skip to purple. For 12 to 17: White Yellow Orange Green Stay until they are 16, then: Blue Purple Brown Possibly black if they are good enough then black/red squares Then red For adults: White Blue Purple Brown Black Black/Red squares Red But you have to get four stripes on each belt to move to the next one. Hope I Helped!!

How long does a serpentine belt normally last?

that is impossable to answer. life of belt all depends on how much the engine is run


Can you call a black belt a noob in Karate if she's not good even though the person who wants to say it is a white belt and is still better than her?

Not if you want to continue studying at that school! My Sensei would throw a white belt out if they were so arrogant as to make such a statement. You are insulting the senior student and their instructor. And a white belt doesn't know what good is.No. Karate is not just about how good someone is physically. It's also about knowledge, attitude, discipline. Chances are, as a white belt, you know one or two kata. She, as a black belt, probably knows 10-15 if not more.I learned a long time ago that even if you are physically better, that has no bearing on whether you know more. Your arrogant attitude is completely contradictory to the nature you're supposed to learn, and you're failing all the basic rules of discipline and respect.


How do you remove the serpentine belt pulley on a 94 3.1 Chevy lumina alternator?

under the alternator you will see a automatic belt tensioner you use a extra long 3/8 inch square breaker bar or a 3/8 ratchet wrench with a pipe extension the pulley is spring loaded so pull until belt loosens and pulls off do the same to put back on make sure there is a belt diagram on water pump pulley cover before you go nuts trying to figure out where belt goes make sure belt is on every pulley groove or belt will chew up and fly off
