Belt Meanings

The belt color signifies each students level of training and proficiency. In order to progress to the next belt colour, the student need to undergo a physical test (ITF Grading), which becomes increasingly more complex and difficult as they progress to higher ranks.

White

​Signifies innocence.  No previous knowledge of Taekwon-do.

Yellow

Signifies the earth from which a plant sprouts and takes root as the foundation of Taekwon-Do is being laid.

Green

Signifies the plants growth as the Taekwon-do skills begin to develop.

Blue

Signifies the sky and the heavens, towards which the tree grows as Taekwon-do training training progresses.

Red

Signifies danger, cautioning the student to exercise control and warning an opponent to stay away.

Black

The opposite of white, therefore signifying a maturity and proficiency in Taekwon-do and the holders imperviousness to darkness and fear.
