White Belt

White Belt (1/10)

  1. Is it so wrong to want to give her credentials of some sort and motivating her / rewarding her for her hard work? I don't know what your rank is, but imagine someone just stripped you of your rank. Should that mean anything to you if the sole goal of your training was simply gaining useful knowledge and experience? How about if someone took away your high school diploma or college degree? Why do we compete or grade students on anything but a pass/fail scale or put little gold stars on elementary school students' tests? While it is true, a lot of people get too caught up in rank. The study of martial arts is supposed to be founded in honor and respect, I understand that. But to deny that it's human nature to want to be rewarded for our work is idealistic.
  2. I'm not sure if Kukkiwon cares about colored belts. I would guess not, but I'm not positive. Maybe I should call them and find out.
  3. I have a simple question. I have a 2nd dan in TKD with the WTF (with kukkiwon, obviously). I no longer officially train at a school and don't really intend on opening a school. My wife has expressed interest in beginning to learn TKD. I told her that, since I have experience teaching TKD in the past, that I feel comfortable training her. However, if she is going to put the time and effort into training, I would like to be able to test and award her ranks / belts, as appropriate. I know I can just go buy them at the store and give them to her, but that isn't what I want to do. Does anyone know how I would be able to go about making it more "official"? Is this something that I can even do? Thanks in advance!
