That's a pretty arrogant statement. You can rant all you want. I am not changing my original statements. Tomiki style schools as a rule do have shorter time requirements to Shodan (1.5-2 yrs) and move faster through higher dan ranks. As for visiting these schools in Texas, it stands out quite a bit when you visit look at the length of training and time in rank. Just shows that cross organization rank comparison doesn't mean diddly.
