Rotten Head Fok Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 When I first started in CLF we did not have sashes (belts) you were either a student or a teacher. Now a days there is a ranking sytem. I have it somewhere but my PC is having problems and I am at the library. The reason we have ranks now, is to give incouragement to students. This is not to be taken disrespectfully, It's the way CLF started, or at least my school. You must be stable and balanced in your foot work, if you have to use your martial knowledge in combat, your intent should be to win. If you do strike, you must release great power! The martial arts are easy to learn, but difficult to correct.

italian_guy Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 In my karate dojo is: White Yellow Orange Green Blue Brown Black This is the color scheme used by FILJKAM which is the main organization of MAs in Italy. It is a federation controlled by the CONI which is a government agency (this thing of having Gov agencies controlling sport federations is an heritage of the fascist regime where sport was a matter of national pride). My Tai chi chuan school instead has only white blue and black.
