aefibird Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 My karate school has:whiteorangeyellowredgreenpurplepurple & 1 white stripebrownbrown & 1 white stripebrown & 2 white stripesblack (no stripes to denote dan grade)personally, I'd like us to ditch all the stripe belts, as I feel that we have too many grades. Our kobudo training doesn't involve ranking.In my Wing Chun school we have 4 sash colours:red, green, brown and black. There are 2 levels within each sash, except black. However, most people don't wear their sashes, except on a grading day or when we have a special guest instructor.I also train in Tai Chi but we don't have grades in that. "Was it really worth it?

aefibird Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 cho dan bo (dark blue belt)karatekid, how easy/hard was it for students at your TSD school to get a cho dan bo belt? By "get" I mean literally buy rather than process of earning one... It's just that I've never seen a dark blue belt for sale on any MA website that I've been on that is based in the UK - or for sale in any UK MA shop either. Did your school have to specially order dark blue belts or are they commonly on sale in the USA? "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."

karatekid1975 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I don't know really (I didn't get that far there). My instructor did have trouble finding the sizes that he needed. I am going to train there in two weeks when I visit NJ. I can ask for you. Laurie F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 NoneOrangeYellowLight GreenDark GreenRedBlueBrownWhiteGoldBlackYeah, our white belt is a pretty high rank. Our schools belts are pretty neat though, they're black silk sashes with colored ends. The game of chess is much like a swordfight; you must think before you move.
