| I agree with Chapel and Souldrum......take it. its an opportunity to train with the advanced class more often and
even though you may get roughed up. its only the beginning youll get better. im in a similar situation at my ninjutsu school. most of the time im the only an the youngest Kyu grade there an i get roughed up by the black belts. which I
find to be a quality learning experience.
also, if your were training in Japan. your situation would most likely be the same. thats how it is with alot of Japanese arts. cause belts really dont matter the way how we look at it in the west,
they emphasize your skills, learning ability, discipline more.
so if you have those you would find yourself moving up fast in Japan too
