Tying Your Karate Belt has
Always Been
the #1 Test for
Beginning TaeKwonDo Students
The Ancient art of Tying Your Karate Belt is, indeed, an Ancient Problem. As mentioned on the
White Belt Page
, even all of the Black Belt Grand Masters had this problem at one time. They were exactly like you are right now! The problem with Tying Your Karate Belt is caused by having to wrap the belt around your mid-section, not once, but twice. Then it becomes, How do you tie the knot?? What kind of knot is it? What's the trick to getting the ends of the belt to be equal lengths after the knot is tied?? Do the ends always have to be the same length and Why? You may see your instructor demonstrate this once or twice but when you get home, you go blank. No Worries!! Just click through our Newest HD Version, "Tying Your Karate Belt Video". It will take you step by step--slowly--and now even with Detailed CloseUps! You'll be able to really impress your instructor at your next class! As a TaeKwonDo Instructor, tying a Karate Belt is second nature to me. This same belt tying method holds true whether you take Judo, Ju Jitsu, American Karate, or any other martial art style that uses the traditional double wrap belt. I could do this blindfolded but it took practice and guidance. Most martial arts students are visual learners and pictures or short videos really help --a lot!
Now, other students will want to know where you learned how to do that. Its OK, go ahead and give them this link. Everybody has to learn how to do this at some point. My fellow instructor, Mr. Rice and I are producing many more videos that will improve your techniques, kicks, sparring, and most of all FORMS! |
