• A Junior Black is a student who is below 16 years of age. To take the 1st Dan<br />
Examination, a student must be at least 16 years of age in the year of the grading. A 1st<br />
Dan has a more difficult power-breaking exam and a much higher standard of expertise<br />
will be expected during the grading. When the Junior Black Belt student reaches the age<br />
of 16, and if he or she is mature enough and is recommended <strong>by</strong> their Instructor, they<br />
can take the upgrading examination to 1st Dan.<br />
