One of the most well known and respected aspects of the martial arts is the belt rank and while our emphasis is more on education then belt rank we have an 8 belt system of white, yellow, orange, green, purple, red, brown, and then black. A student advances in rank only when the instructor feels he or she is ready then they must go through a exhaustive pre-test and a test in front of the highest ranking belts. Only after the pre-test and test are passed will the next belt be awarded I know this sounds difficult, but it is not impossible and gives a great sense of accomplishment when the next belt is attained.
