CROSS RANKING PROCEDURES

Cross Ranking in Nippon Jujitsu

Nippon Jujitsu Kai U.S.A. has developed a Cross Ranking Program, of which is endorsed by the Kokusai Aikijitsu Kai Renmei - Tokyo, Japan, for those practitioners who seek to gain valid Dan recognition in a traditional style of the Art. The procedure is simple, requiring the applicant to furnish only the appropriate documentation and Cross Ranking fees.
 
Nippon Jujitsu Kai U.S.A. will provide to members the opportunity to have their Black Belt registered and certified by Nippon Jujitsu Kai USA (Japanese Jujitsu Association USA) and supply the Official Menjo (Certificate) bearing the members name and Dan grade. This Menjo is printed in Kanji (Japanese Calligraphy) and bears the recipients name and Dan Grade in Japanese. All Menjos bear the seals/chops of the Nippon Jujitsu Kai USA and are personally sealed by the Senior Yudansha of the Association.
 
In most instances, Nippon Jujitsu Kai USA will cross rank the applicant 1  Dan Grade below the highest Dan presented for cross ranking (i.e. If you are a Sandan in another valid and recognized system of Jujitsu, Nippon Jujitsu Kai USA will usually cros rank this applicant at Nidan)(occassionally, Nippon Jujitsu Kai U.S.A. will recognize full Dan ranking, depending on the applicants style or ryu presented for cross ranking).
 
To apply for Cross Ranking through Nippon Jujitsu Kai USA, send a .jpg or .gif of your current Black Belt Certificate to:
