Re: Skipping grades?

IMHO, don't take the grade (or skipping) too seriously, just get back to training. Don't take the color of your belt too seriously or too personally because if you keep training it will change.
Lynn,
I just said the same thing last night in class. Some of the younger trainees where arguing over who gets to sit where in seiza during the begining of class. Since I am only into my 3 month I typically sit in the back (where I prefer so I can watch people). I told the kids "If you know what your ranking is, it doesn't matter where you sit"

I am not sure if they liked that answer......
