Ours has the camo belt (ATA). Our belt ranks progress White, orange, yellow, camo (First point at which they can free spar with pads), green, purple, blue, brown, red, red/black (Which is 1st degree recommended), and black (1st degree decided.)

So, if there are 10 gup levels,... when are they adding the extra belt??? My vote is for fuscia, or teal... or muave,... I like muave,... but then there is tope,... Oh, I'm so confused now...

Red/black is an intermediate belt. We have 9 forms, (Songahm 1-5, Chung Joong 1 and 2 and In Wha 1 and 2.)

Once you reach 1R (1st recommended), you spend the next term reviewing and getting ready for 1D, you don't learn any new material.

When my father took TKD back in 1973-4 there were only 8 gups. And they only had 5 belt colors.

8. White

7. Yellow

6. Green

5. Blue

4. Blue

3. Brown

2. Brown

1. Brown

Personally I don't think it really matters what colors the belts are as long as there is some order.

Yes,the color of the belt doesnt matter...but camo color?

Why not just make some rainbow color belt...

This is why Im not a big fan of the ATA..they can come up with the most odd stuff.
