Legend:
* These techniques have the same name, yet have been modified a little or a lot.
** These are new techniques developed within the AKKI.
OK... there you have it.
From there on each Brown has 16, and same for every belt thereafter.
SO: for us it goes 10, 16, 16, 20, 20, 16, 16, 16, 16...
Brown and up are still being modified/changed so there may be some number changes coming up, never know.
Thanks for the good question.
Your Brother
