Default MT:15th Dan - is this possible?

15th Dan - is this possible? By ryuu - Sat, 29 Sep 2007 17:28:54 GMT

=========

I thought the highest was only 9th Dan? And then I read stuff like the wikipedia entry for Stephen K. Hayes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_K._Hayes) which says that he has a 10th dan. So.. pls enlighten me. What's the actual case with the dans? Reason I'm asking is I'm determining if the person I'm looking to train with is for real or not...

the original belt set up as developed by gichin funakoshi was only 5 dans. anything over that was honorary. usually a style grandmaster or creator will be awarded a 10th dan. most ninjitsu styles have a ranking system with only 5 kyu grades then anything over that is a dan grade up to 15th dan.
