Kyu mean below a black belt
Judo uses a typical ranking system for Gendai budo martial arts. There are six kyu ranks and ten dan ranks. Progression is from 6th to 1st kyu, and then from 1st to 10th dan. Colored belts include the white belt (6th kyu), yellow belt (5th kyu), orange belt (4th kyu), green belt (3rd kyu), blue belt (2nd kyu), and brown belt (1st kyu). Black belts are used from 1st to 5th dan, red and white belts from 6th to 8th dan, and solid red belts for 9th and 10th dan. Currently, the 10th dan is no longer officially awarded to anyone.
Kyu(brow belt and belwo) or dan (for black belts). Each has a different number depending on their grade. For example, brown belt is 1st Kyu, white belt is 6th.
It would be either 'kyu' for someone starting or 'dan' for those that have reached black belt level.
Yes, Judo does mean easy way.
The lower ranks are called kyu. There are six to twelve of them depending on the school. The higher ranks are called dan.
Judo is Japanese for "gentle way."
I'm not sure if 'kyu' has any real meaning, but 'nya' is the Japanese equivalent of 'meow'. If it was a kid who said it, probably has no meaning at all. If it was an adult, they could be talking about a cat. Well, I hope that helped...
Do you mean judo defense...
mon
As Judo is a Japanese word it means the same thing gentle way.
