I agree with the above...I had one ```exceptional``` student that was able to go back in time, he re-invented himself as the first British Aikidoka -
a unique achievement ..The first UK dan grade for Shotokan Karate sixteen years before it arrived in the UK
another unique achievement... He claimed to have represented the British Judo Council (BJC) in international Judo competitition some ten years before the BJC was created,
yet another unique achievement
He asked his students if they thought he should grade himself to 7th dan - done -
another outstanding achievement.
I am so pleased to see that my old student has gone on to great things, and to achieve higher grade than I am...I am so proud
