Goshinkan-Ryu Ju Jitsu currently has over 30 registered Black Belts, however not everyone is driven to put in the additional time learning how to teach others.

For some the achievement of earning a Black Belt is as far as they wish to go in their martial arts journey — a goal typically reached in three years. This is no small feat, but for others the journey begins the moment they are awarded their first degree Black Belt.

It's hard to tell who the next generation of teachers will be just by watching a class, but in our experience it's always the students who give 100% commitment to each and every class they attend. They are the students who, after they learn the macro-movements of a technique, seek refinement and a finer edge to their responses; they are always the first person to agree (often times ask) to be someone's Uke, be it higher belt or lower belt, grading or practice. And as they progress they are typically the Sempai found helping the lower belts.

To teach is to learn.
