If I started tomorrow, how long would it take to get my black belt in Kick-boxing?

Answer 1

I don't know if it's the same, but I take taekwondo and i read somewhere it takes about 2.5 years to get from white belt to black. Kickboxing probably has different belt colors, but our school goes: White, Yellow, Green, High green, Blue, high Blue, red, and then i think sometimes there is a high red in between, and finally black. There was a sign hanging in our school:" A Black belt is just a White Belt that doesn't give up." Kind of inspiring. Good luck!

You have some very good responses here. You can make an argument for the instructor or against the instructor. Therefore, my response is both for and against the black belt. You are learning karate not table tennis. You should expect some contact. Sometimes the contact will be harder than others. Especially as you grow in rank and skill. Our school trains in shorin ryu and jujitsu. Our style is a hard style. We have a saying in our class. If you can take what is done in here there is nothing that hurt you on the streets. But I will also say that we don't hit or allow our white belts to be hit as hard as a student of a higher rank. We also have a rule in our class. Remember that you are working with a partner. Remember that your partner gets a turn too. If you are out of control with your punches or kicks the second person get a turn too and can return the favor. I wouldn't advise you to do that with this black belt. On the other side he was wrong. He should have acknowledge that you at this point aren't able to handle that amount of contact yet. He should have never kicked you hard or soft as a form of discipline. That is unacceptable. I know there are always 3 sides to every story. There is your side, his side, and the truth. I'm sure you left out a fe details. maybe the word that you chose to use when you told him to lighten up. Maybe the tone that you used? But no one deserves to be treated like that. Even if you came to him the wrong way ans a black belt he should show more restrain and control. Your behavior should not dictate his response with physical confrontation.

It depends on how much dedication and effort into it. Find a good instructor. If he promises you a BB in a certain amount of time don't go to him. Find one that will tell you that it is up to you as for how long it takes. Besides i think the ones who make the best BB are the ones who are dedicated and put everything into it but also take there time at each rank to learn what they really need to know before they advance. Don't rush it. Learn it and in time you will advance. People who rush through ranks just to get a black belt never really learn the basics. they just go through the motions.

Answer 4

I hear you can get a black belt from aishida kim, just by mailing in your name and style.

Or is it learning to fight that you actually care about?

People dont run from you because you have a black belt, they try to test you. If you can't back it up, you will get you *** kicked. Also I'm not aware of kickboxing schools that hand out belts. It is a competitive art.

Answer 5

Professional kickboxers don't have belts that I am aware of? So I think if you go into what most people consider kickboxing there won't be any belts.

Answer 6

A crooked instructor into teaching only for the money will give you one in 6 months. But to sincerely learn the art, at least 3 years.

Besides, it's NEVER about what you wear on the outside. It's ALL about what you achieved on the inside.

Answer 7

There's belt rankings in kickboxing?

Answer 8

Dedication and effort answers again I am afraid; add to that natural sporting ability, 3 to 5 years

Answer 9

It depends on how hard you work.
