Note: Each belt from orange through red includes two rank levels. The lower level (no stripe) is called "recommended." The higher level (one stripe) is called "decided."
For 1st and 2nd degree black belts, the "recommended" rank is a probationary stage. Upon receiving a 1st degree or 2nd degree recommended, students must test successfully for the "decided" rank within six months, or else they return to the rank immediately below the recommended one. They then are allowed to test again for the recommended rank. There are no recommended levels for 3rd through 9th degree black belts. Back to top
