I will be curious to see what the time frame is from beginner to black belt when one takes the classes online through the Gracie online university. Up to this point, BJJ grading is highly regarded.My style was Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, unfortunately the club closed down. The average is about 10 years of fairly regular training.
There are a few exceptions, though. BJ Penn got his black belt in only 3 and a half years, which is pretty much unheard of. However, his dad is rolling in the dough and was able to pay for a lot of private lessons to supplement his 5 day a week training.
They don't call him "The Prodigy" for nothing.
I didn't think that CMAs used belts.I practise Seven Star Praying Mantis. In our school, it takes a fairly long time to reach black belt status, a bit over seven years if you do it in the shortest time possible.
Why would a jedi need a black belt? Couldn't you just choke mofos from across the room?
