Is there one? I'm not asking when I'm getting my belt, just want to know what is expected. This might have already been beat to death in a previous thread but I'm curious as to the standard.

There is an online way to do it. But if you're currently at a school, every instructor is different. Just work to get better. We have some ronins on this board who have competed and won in advanced brackets while still unranked. Hey man, I want a blue belt too one day. But for now, just focus on getting better. Your teacher will let you know when it's time.

You have to give it time. Don't focus on the belt just focus on the sport when your ready your teacher will let you know.

I completely agree with all of this. At the same time I feel that there should be a road map of sorts to at least, say, the half way mark. "you need to have these fundamental techniques down before even being considered for promotion." You get me? Not trying to rush the process just looking for some structure.

I think a road map is a little closed minded. Part of the fun in jiu jitsu is finding your own way and your own path to the finish line. Developing your OWN game. Just enjoy the journey and let it happen brotha

As one of Ganesh's coaches I have to say that he is a patient and hard working student. I think what he wants is more of an Idea of what are the techs that all blue belts should know and NOT a list of techs that in the gracie system would automatically justify a belt IF you know them. I would say that for me this would start with something like this:
Lockdown: Whip up, Dog Fight, Electric Chair, Old School, Stomp
Rubber guard: Mission Control, Zombie, Night of the living dead, Pump, Crack Head Control, Chill Dog, Jiu Claw
I will let you guys fill in some more. Im thinking about techs that are crucial to the system and can be played in Blue belt level turny.
