armanox Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I have another question that's off topic. Do you receive your white belt as soon as you join? Or do you have to learn a certain amount to earn it?Some schools will start you off as a 'no-belt' and after a set amount of time you become a white belt. But Majority of schools you start as a white belt immediately upon joining the dojo.I've always seen white belts as no belts. It's a uniform piece, not a rank. What would you then say if there was a rank prior to white belt where you physically have no belt?For martial arts that utilize a gi I'd say that they are missing a part, and that the top won't stay shut "Karate is NOT about the colour of belt you wear it is about the person you become;...to be a good blackbelt is to be humble and respectful amongst other things." -Dobbersky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
