...cut me off and said "well, there are dans, and then there are dans who win tournaments. It might take shorter time to get shodan from other dojos but if you get dan from mine, it really counts...."

Sometimes I don't even know if I want to go test to be "labeled...." I think it could be pretty fun too to be the lowest rank person in the dojo, but have great kendo... and sometimes it may be nice to go test to see what you could~ be... if you get to high of a rank, people would start to expect so much out of you... it's nice to have very little on your mind and take it easy.
