Blue belt, 2nd Kyu syllabus - Ninjutsu

By Yossi Sheriff

The belt degree requirements previously outlined on these pages served as the foundational framework for AKBAN's Ninjutsu training for many years. These guidelines have not only inspired but have also been directly adopted by various other organizations. While we have since transitioned to the more evolved AKBAN Levels Grading System, we've chosen to preserve these original belt requirements as a resource for those who may find them useful.

Blue belt grade syllabus, 2nd Kyu, 二級, in Ninjutsu is a comprehensive source of video and articles to prepare an AKBAN student in the Ninjutsu techniques that are required in the exam.

The Blue belt (2nd Kyu) exam in AKBAN sums an important point in the years of learning toward the Black belt exam - It emphasizes Striking, Kicking, throwing and Joint lock skills. The Average time for learning for the Blue belt exams is 5-7 years dojo time. The Blue belt (חגורה כחולה), is an essential 'two thirds of the way' exam that emphasizes explosive strikes and movements.
