Membership and ranking within The International Budo Institute is independent
of all other schools and styles. As a learning institute the internal ranking of
Instructors and students is independent and follows the guidlines solely of The
Institute. In this respect, students wishing to pass exams for Dan equivalence
may do so within the structure of The Institute regardless of their dan ranking
or status elsewhere.
Thus, a student may be 2nd Dan within his own style of
Karate, Judo, Jujutsu or Aikido and endeavour to obtain a 3rd Dan ranking within
the Institute. The 3rd Dan ranking in no way affects his/her ranking within
their primary school and is separate of it.
As
well, Instructors of The International Budo Institute are ranked based
on their previous diverse martial arts experience across all martial
art forms. Also, responsibility and roles within The Institute are
taken into consideration for the awarding of any title or Dan rank.
Thus, any member wishing to obtain a teaching certificate or position within the Institute will be
judged on his/her overall martial arts knowledge from all their Budo studies
not just within a single system or ryu (school). |
