foreveryoung001 Posted September 29, 2004 Posted September 29, 2004 I'm going to open a new school with the follwoing belt system: No Belt Egg Shell White Snow White Pink Yellow Orange Light Green Dark Green Barny the Dino Purple Deep Purple Sky Blue Light Blue Royal Blue Midnight Blue Candy Apple Red Dark Red Tan Light Brown Medium Brown Dark Brown Desert Camouflage Woodland Camouflage Black Then I might add stripes and lines and checkers. I can charge $50.00 a test and make the students buy their new belts and gis from me as well. Sounds like a good system, but you might want to re-think the gis. I'm not sure light blue works well with a white gi. You might want to have them pruchase (from you of course) a different color gi for each belt. Remember, fashion isn't everything, it's the ONLY thing! Desert Camouflage with a forest green gi... I get goose bumps just thinking about it. Student: "Why did you hit that guy with a chair? Why didn't you use your karate?"Master: "Hitting him with a chair was the only karate I could think of at the time."Lesson: Practice until you don't have to think.

Belasko Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 gcav, Spoken like a true entrepeneur(sp?). On the original thread though, I believe that you are a slightly different chung do kwan group than I come from. I'm part of the Chung Do Kwan Alliance. The ranking in our style is whiteyellowgreenpurplebrownblackThere are high and low rankings for green through brown and 9 degrees of black. Getting a blackbelt just says you have learned the basics and are ready to actually study the form as an art.
ninjanurse Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Generally TKD belts are as follows:White-innocentYellow-a plant growing rootsGreen-a plant growing leavesBlue-a plant growing towards the skyRed-dangerBlack-maturity (opposite of innocence)*Poom belts are for Black Belts under the age of 16Not all TKD schools follow this traditional structure but most have something similar. Our school has 3 additional colors (orange, purple, and brown) which basically serve as intermediate steps to the 5 phases of growth. No matter what the color scheme is the requirements are generally the same for each gup so it really doesn't matter.

JaseP Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 Your "red tag" blue belt with the red stripe through looks dangerously like the Tang Soo Do/Soo Bahk Do Masters' belt... Which can be either Black with a red stripe through or Midnight blue with a red stripe through one side. Master Jason Powlette5th Dan, Tang Soo Do--Tang Soo!!!
