At Shogun World we have developed a set of techniques for our junior & senior students to learn to progress in the art of Ju-Jitsu. This list is broken down into belt categories, so a student has a clear guide of what is expected each time they wish to be promoted to the next belt.
The Syllabus
The Belt System
The main idea behind being awarded belts is to give students a physical represenation of how they are progressing and to show which students have trained longer and have more skill when compared to other students.
The belt ranking system is a Western concept, although there are some myths about early martial artists starting with a white belt that they didn't wash, one reason why the belts tend to get darker as you progress.
Grading
When the instructor and the student feel they are ready to test themselves to be promoted to the next belt, they will take part in a grading.
Usually this consists of demonstrating that the student is competent in applying the techniques from the syllabus for the belt they are trying to achieve.
