Athy Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 Weird IMO that dojo's do belts differently, mine was: White Red Yellow Orange Green Blue Purple Brown Brown 2 Brown 3 PS: How do you change the belt thing on the left??
Kirves Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 PS: How do you change the belt thing on the left?? It is your forum rank. The more you post, the higher your rank will be.
telsun Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 Our association does not have a 10th kyu. The belt ranking system is something that I have never really given any thought to, until I joined this forum. It really does appear to be a complicated issue, but needn't be. After all it is only a belt I keep asking God what I'm for and he tells me........."gee I'm not sure!"
Kirves Posted June 29, 2003 Posted June 29, 2003 Yeah. Telsun, you got it right. All the belt system is, is a way to structure teaching. Too many people think it is a measure of a warrior. A true warrior looks beyond the color of the belt.

ninjanurse Posted June 30, 2003 Posted June 30, 2003 It depends on the school or association. My old school had 12 gups, new school has 10 for adults, 12 for kids-and they are about to change it. It doesn't matter to me either way. "A Black Belt is only the beginning."Heidi-A student of the artsTae Kwon Do,Shotokan,Ju Jitsu,Modern Arnishttp://the100info.tumblr.com/
