nystangkid Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 In karate, what is the color order of the belts? Such as, white, then, up to black belt? Is it the same for all martial arts? thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 It varies from style to style. Some styles don't even have ranks. Kung fu uses sashes. Thai boxing and boxing don't have rankings.That said, you typically start at white, then move onto a green, then perhaps blue, towards brown, and then a red or black belt.My system of TKD goes white, orange, green, blue, brown, and black. Each color (except white) has a lo and a hi grade, until brown, which has a lo, mid, and hi grade. Then, you get recommended black, then full black. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps1 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 These are for the arts I study/ have studied:TKD: white, yellow, blue, purple, green, brown, red, red-black, blackChuan Fa (Kung Fu), sashes: white, green, brown, blackShotokan: white, orange, yellow, blue, green, purple, brown, blackAiki Jujitsu: white, brown, blackKobudo: white, blue, green, purple, brown, blackBJJ: white, blue, purple, brown blackOf course each has degrees of black belt. But that did not represent a change in color of the belt. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
