I just remember progression through each belt is a lot easier in the US than in the "native" martial arts countries since the US ignores the mental aspect of progression pretty much. | ||

Japan is known for having easier black belt examinations. This is just a facet of their mentality. People in areas like the United States view the black belt as much more of an accomplishment, signifying at least some degree of mastery while the Japanese view it as merely the first step in a long journey. Congratulations on your black belt. | ||

Sounds like you study in the US Awesome job though man i agree with DragoonPK a common misconception for those who do not study or practice martial arts for an extended period of time is to assume that black belt is the "ultimate level". i remember when i got my black belt in taekwondo they had a very serious 30 minute lecture about how white through red belts were just to get the fundamentals down. now that we were black belts we could actually start learning taekwondo. | ||
