The black belt rank means different things in different arts, so you can%26#039;t really compare a judo blackbelt to a TKD black belt.
That said, my TKD acquaintances say that you can get a black belt in taekwondo in as little as two years. One said 18 months, if you practice a lot. In TKD, black belt apparently lets you participate in competition at a different level. It doesn%26#039;t mean you%26#039;re an %26quot;expert%26quot;.
In judo, a black belt will take between five and 10 years of solid work, on average. (Can take longer if you train less than twice a week, are over about 35, or are extremely unathletic.) I don%26#039;t know about Japanese jujutsu, but Brazilian jiu-jitsu takes about the same as judo, maybe longer. Eight to 15 years is what the people said at the first BJJ school I went to. If you have a background in either judo or BJJ, it will help you out a lot if you start learning the other art. In the long run, that is; in the short term, it tends to interfere with the new art you%26#039;re trying to learn.
Karate? No idea. While there may be decent types of karate, there are too many mcdojos. Why waste my time with karate when I could just train boxing or muay thai instead? In the karate style I foolishly dedicated myself to, I was about 2/3 of the way to black belt before I realized the whole thing was a fraud and quit in disgust. That was a bit under two years, so it was about 2.5 years to black belt -- for all the good such a worthless belt would do you.
If you are just interested in collecting belts, I advise you in all seriousness to just buy them online. It will be a lot less time-consuming and far cheaper. Besides, if you have a belt-collecting mindset, you are not likely to learn much about fighting or self-defense, anyway, so you might as well just cut out the middle stuff and get the belt.|||CAUGHT YA!!!

|||It know this is not the answer that you are looking to get. But it take as long as it takes. It takes different people a different amount of time. It may take one person 4 year int may take another person 6 years. There are too many variable to answer this question.
One person may be working out at the dojo 5 to 7 days a week. The other person is working out 1 to 2 days a week. It would also depend on how often do you wok on your art away from the dojo. If you work out twice a week for an hour or two and never practice at home it will show and take you longer to get any rank.|||In any real dojo, it will take you between four and five years depending on how frequently you train and how dedicated you are. Any less than 3.5 years for a black belt and you%26#039;re not actually holding or deserving of that rank, regardless of the color sash you wear. Sorry, I know I%26#039;ll get hated on for this, but that%26#039;s the truth unless you%26#039;re in some americanized %26#039;dojo%26#039; that would rather take your money than train you properly. 4-5 years, no excuses.|||in taekwondo its fairly quick from what i%26#039;ve heard, Im taking tae kwon do but i really dont like it at all, im gonna switch to brazilian jujitsu. anywayz in taekwondo about every month i get tested for a new belt so i%26#039;d say about 10-12 months to get a black belt in tae kwon do. someone told me jujitsu takes years to master, so yeah im guessing 1+ years and judo and karate im not sure about. My answers probably inaccurate but im just giving you a starting point from what i know|||It depends on the Instructor, the school, and whether they are in it for the money or to actually teach right. In most good traditional karate schools it will take from 4-5 years to receive your Black Belt if you study and train hard and earn it, but understand in Karate Black belt is where you are actually considered to be a serious student, and are now ready to really learn.
If the place is a belt factory you need to avoid it. If they promise you a belt in two years just keep on walking. this is one of the main reasons having a black belt is not thought of as no big deal now days. I am sure there are many Keybord warriors/ wannabe%26#039;s that actually went online and bight their belts.
Edit for sibling- Once again you spout off about karate without knowing about it. The one style/bad experiance that you had is only one school and one style. it would be like me saying everyone who is good at math is a nerd. There are numerous types of karate, and for you to trash them all shows just how limited your thinking is.|||At a good Japanese school of either Karate, Jujitsu, or Judo; usually at least four to five years of regular training. TKD more like three years, sometimes less. Some international standards are as follows:
WTF (World TKD Fed.) 1 Year minimum
JKA (Japan Karate Assn.) 3 Years min.|||This answer is dependent upon a few factors that must be taken into consideration, such as the individual school and the style of martial art you find yourself in.
I think the better question to be asking is what kind of style do you want to train in? a Tae Kwon Do school for example that will push you through the ranks in a year and give you a black belt that you know you didn%26#039;t earn.
Or would you rather train in an alive art where belts aren%26#039;t emphasized as much but in even three months of training you would be better off then if you had your Tae Kwon Do Mcdojo belt?
Think about it.|||Officially it takes as long as it takes provided you understand the material and are willing to put in the practice.
My sensei got his for karate (Shorin-ryu) in about a year, but then he had grounding in other martial arts before then and practiced it every day because he%26#039;s really obsessive like that. It took me a little more than 2 years to get it done but then I was kinda obsessive about it too.|||Grasshopper.....Count not the number of years of regular weekly training.....count the number of friends you have helped in their training along the way....count the number of blisters upon your feet....count the tears you have shed in your defeats in kumite .....chart the progress through your advancements in belt rankings and do not expect to advance at the same speed as others....the turtle progresses down the same path as the hare and yet both have learned different methods, neither of them superior to the other just because they learn it at a faster rate.|||I dont know about jujitsu, judo or karate. but in TKD you have to b at least 15 years old, and it totally depends on who you are and where you train. It took me 5 years to get to black belt (grading about 2-4 times a year)
but i know of ppl who have got 2 black belt in 2 years|||Generally speaking, 2 to 5 years.
Some people train 1-2 days a week. Others train 4-5 days a week.
The people training more often can advance more quickly. It%26#039;s really up to you, just make sure you don%26#039;t go to fast.
Think about quality before you think about quantity.
James|||It varies from school to school. No one can give you a gauranteed time. If they do then I would not trust it. Sure it is safe to say several years, but each of us learn at our own pace and it also depends on the quality of the teacher too.
So basically time frames vary.|||all depends on how dedicated you are and how much time you put in.
it also depends on how many belts you need to promote through to get to black.
it can be anywhere from a year to 10 years|||Depends how much training you do. usually about 4-6 years.
http://markstraining.com Fighting and Training Methods for Unarmed Martial Artists.|||In karate it takes about 7 or 8 years, sometimes more.|||jiu jitsu takes usually 10-12 years to get a black belt in|||at least a year
