Black Belt Club

The Maritime IKD Black Belt Club spans many years and organizations. The black belts listed here have earned their ranks in the JKA, ISKF and IKD.

To become a member, the black belt must register their black belt with the Maritime IKD headquarters.

All ranks here have been registered through the Maritime IKD. There is a small group of “Honorary” members of the Maritime IKD Black Belt Club. The “Honorary” members are high ranking Masters who did not receive their rank as part of the Maritime IKD.


Shodan (1st Degree Black Belt)

Shodan mean first step and is the beginning of really learning the art of Karate. A student must train for more than a year after receiving their 1st Kyu (3rd Brown Belt) to be able to test for Shodan.
