I took Shotokan Karate for several years and I would like to get back into it after taking two other styles for 10 years. Id like to go in as a white belt because I really don't know how much I remember. When students do that do they normally have to go through all the ranks like a beginner or do instructors let you test at higher ranks if you pick it back up quickly? Im not saying I will pick it up quickly (Im not young anymore and my body is rebelling against me) but nothing wrong with a little hope.
