Colored Belt

How do belts work in karate? What is the average amount of time spent in each color belt? How many times a?

week are classes, and how many hours a week are generally committed?

Hi there

This is only a rough guide and is based on a student training 3 hours a week.

10th kyu to 4th kyu 3 months for each

3rd kyu to 2 nd ky 6 months

1st kyu to shodan one to two years.

No one should gain a black belt under 5 years
