A Black Belt is definitely not the highest level, there are Master Black Belts.

I thought Green Belt was a lower level, but I’m confused about whether Black Belt is the highest or if Master Black Belt exists.

I’m pretty sure Black Belts are important for training teams, but I can't recall if they are the top level.

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, and I’m leaning towards saying there are higher levels than Black Belt.

I think I remember that Black Belt is a high level, but I’m not sure if it’s the highest. There might be something about Master Black Belts.
