Blade96 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I have seen many arts put green before blue, I have seen few put blue before green. then, purple is placed somewhere in-between?These three colors may not fully symbolize a gradual color-darkening process, as many think bekt ranking does.with the colors of our belts you'd think they'd put blue before green cause the blue one is brighter. and therefore going with the gradual darkening.but no they put green before blue in our systemwho'da thunk it. Some people regard discipline as a chore. For me it is a kind of order that sets me free to fly.You don't have to blow out someone else's candle in order to let your own flame shine.

sensei8 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 In Shindokan, our blue is after green. Why? The Blue Sky is ABOVE the solid Green Earth. **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soheir Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 In Shindokan, our blue is after green. Why? The Blue Sky is ABOVE the solid Green Earth. We have blue belt before green, and between there is yellow, but our light blue refers to water. “One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.” -Anthony Robbins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

still kicking Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Chitsu, when did you start taking Car Park Jutsu? Or did you create that one yourself? I must say I am intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
