Age Requirements for Black Belts

Neon-lit circular logo for The Okami Kai Chronicles podcast featuring a howling wolf silhouette in white against a dark brick background, surrounded by glowing pink and blue rings. The words “The Okami Kai Chronicles” encircle the wolf, representing Okami Kai Martial Arts & Fitness in Uxbridge, Ontario.

Scott Campsall talks about what has become a sensitive topic among martial artists and that is what is the appropriate age for someone to be granted a black belt rank.

He tries to tackle that by explaining how we do things at Okami Kai and why we try to do our best to put systems in place so that we can give credit where it is due while also trying not to insult those who have come before us.
