It depends on the club. For example, in GKR International Karate Club, the order is white (10th kyu), yellow tip (9th kyu), yellow (8th kyu), orange (7th kyu), green (6th kyu) , blue (5th kyu), red (4th kyu), brown (3rd kyu), two black tips (2nd and 1st kyu), black (1st, 2nd, 3rd dan). However, in every club, the first belt is white and the last two are brown and black.
It is not the belt which counts, its the grade.
It will depend on the style of karate being taught at your YMCA. They are not the same everywhere. The instructor will be able to provide you the requirements for the various belts.
white,black,green,yellow,red,pink,blue
Many times, the order changes from school to school. Generally the basic order is:WhiteYellowOrangePurpleBlueGreenBrownRedBlack
Honestly the best thing to do would be either to get a martial arts catalog (I prefer AWMA but Century would probably be easier to get) and order some from there or use Amazon. Using bath robes and cloth belts just looks dorky and unconvincing.
They are black.
ABSOLUTELY!! It doesnt matter how old you are to join karate and earn belts. There was a woman in my karate class and she was 72 years old.....Karate is for anyone who is willing to learn disipline and respect!
Belts states the level of your expertize in the sport. It also inspires you to work harder to win the next belt!
i got some from ebay.
green black and red
Yes of course
they have more or less belts
There are a number of items that can be used to display karate belts. Most are a sort of rack that the belts fit into them. Check a martial arts supply company online and you will find pictures and examples. They are fairly easy to make, and are fairly inexpensive.
