1st dan - Budo Ninjutsu
At least six veteran examiners and the AKBAN hub are necessary.
Black belt grade in Budo Ninjutsu (1st Dan) concentrates the martial and physical requirments in the Akban martial arts school in Israel. These requirements form the guidelines of each test and are to be added to, but not substracted from by the testers.
The tests in Akban form an important point in the maturation process of the martial arts trainees in Akban. The black belt test should be examined both by three instructors and the AKBAN hub.
