What's The Highest Degree Black Belt?

Lucie And Adam Spicar, Master Instructors.

The highest degree black belt in Taekwondo is typically a 9th or 10th degree black belt, which is referred to as a "Grand Master" or "Kwan Jang Nim."

A Taekwondo Grand Master is a highly respected and skilled individual who has achieved the highest rank in the martial art of Taekwondo. They have dedicated their life to the practice and study of Taekwondo, and are recognized as experts in the techniques and philosophy of the art.

Grand Masters are typically leaders in the Taekwondo community and often own their own schools, where they share their knowledge and skills with others. They are also often involved in international Taekwondo organizations, competitions, and events.

The time it takes to become a Grand Master in Taekwondo can vary greatly, depending on various factors such as the individual's dedication and skill level, the school or organization they train with, and the specific requirements for advancement.

On average, it may take 30-40 years or more of consistent training and competition to reach the rank of 9th or 10th degree black belt, but this is not a hard and fast rule. Some individuals may progress more quickly, while others may take longer.

Ultimately, the journey to becoming a Grand Master is a long and dedicated process that requires a deep commitment to the art of Taekwondo.
