Do you know your Kyu rank? Kyu ranking is a Japanese term used to designate various grades, levels or class of proficiency or experience. Kyu rank and belt color go hand in hand. Our dojo uses the following Kyu rank system.
8th Kyu White
7th Kyu Yellow
6th Kyu Yellow/stripe
5th Kyu Green
4th Kyu Purple
3rd Kyu Brown
2nd Kyu Brown/stripe
1st Shodan Black
Other schools may use different colors it's up to their Sensei to decide. I use the system that O-Sensei used over 40 years ago. Worked for him and it still works for us today.
