Belt Rankings for RyuTe® Ren
Mei
A long time ago, Taika decided that belts quite commonly lead to ego problems. The standard ranking system is still in place as a way to tell, at least with the kyu ranks, what the techniques and such a student should be familiar with. Taika designed a uniform with a built in belt. The Summer uniform is white, the Winter is black. Regardless of what rank you are, everyone looks the same. So when you go to association functions, this is the normal dress and nobody knows what rank you are unless you tell them (or they previously knew you). Dojo's still maintain the Kyu ranks as a way for instructors to keep track of the knowledge base but they are not required, at least at Kenshukai, to wear them.
