What is a gup in martial arts?

Geup 급 (aka: "gup" or "kup") = grade The Korean word 급 has been incorrectly translated into English a "gup" or "kup" and is still written this way by many instructors of Korean Martial Art (Taekwondo, Tangsudo, Hapkido), but it is more accurately translated as "geup." It can indicate a level of progression as in a "class," "grade," or "degree." It is used in most Korean Martial Art systems to refer to the color belt "grade" level of a student as opposed to a "Dan" (degree) of the Black Belt. This term is basically equivalent to the Japanese term "Kyu," which was the distinction between student and expert levels of Martial Art as designed for Judo by its founder, Dr. Jigoro Kano. Subsequently, other Japanese Martial Art schools, such as Kara-te and Karate-Do, began to adopt similar belt ranking systems of "Kyu" and "Dan." During the later part of the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910 - 1945), Korean's were only permitted to openly study Japanese Martial Art systems such as Jujutsu, Judo, Aikijutsu, Aikido, and Karate-Do. Although some traditions of former Korean Martial Art (Subak, Tae Kkyeon/Taek Kyon, Hwarang) were passed on in secret, none of the traditional Korean Martial Art training utilized a rank structure for advancement.

What types of martial arts use knees and elbows?

Elbows in Martial artsMost striking oriented martial arts (esp. the "hard" arts) that are based more in combat than competition utilize the devistating potential of elbow strikes. In fact, the reason most competition oriented or sport martial arts consider them illegal is because of their effectiveness. Traditional Japanese and Okinawan striking arts such as Karate and Shotokan train to use elbows when appropriate. Combat oriented Taekwondo schools, of which there are unfortunately few, also use them to compliment their hand and foot striking techniques, though they are not legal in tournament competition. If there were one art in particular to highlight for its expert use of elbows, it would have to be traditional Thai kickboxing or Muay Thai.The striking techniques in Muay Thai are all centered around impacting the target with brutal force using highly conditioned surfaces of the body. As a western kickboxer has excellent hands and feet, a Thai kickboxer also brings to the table elbows and knees that have been conditioned, condensed and hardened through training specific to that end (see also "Wolf's Law" of bone density).There isn't many martial arts that don't use elbows

What is karate expert called?

A teacher of karate is called Sensei. A really high ranked instructor who has earned the respect of their students may be referred to as Hanshi. A traditional martial artist is humble and will never ask to be called by their title, it is up to the other students to teach them the proper terminology. We call our Grandmaster (10th Dan) Sensei when talking with him, but refer to him as Hanshi or Grandmaster when we are talking to others.

If you defeat a black belt does this entitle you to be awarded a black belt?

No, it does not. Winning a fight does not make one an expert in a martial art. It takes years to learn the skills and philosophy of a martial art.
