ok it basically goes by rank (white yellow green, sr green, blue, sr blue, brown, sr brown, red, sr red, 1st deg l1, l2, l3, l4, 2nd deg l1, l2, l3, l4, 3rd deg l1, l2, l3, l4, 4th deg, sr 4th, 5th, sr 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and maybe 10 i dont know how high it goes) then by instructor level so a level 1 instructor sr red has more clout than a normal sr red belt, then by age and time in rank
Wel thats the way for the ITA atleast
