How many different belts are there in karate?

Answer 1

The number of belts varies from school to school and style to style. They are usually divided into two categories, those before blackbelt and those after. In karate there are 10 ranks of blackbelt. The kyu levels vary from four to 12 or even 15.
White, yellow, orange, green, blue, brown, black. In black they than divide the levels by degree like if your first degree black belt you would be lower than a second degree black belt. At least that's how they do it in my dojo. They may also have strips from each belt color. A yellow belt with 2 strips would be higher than a yellow belt with 1 strip.

Answer 2

The number of colored belts, and the number of grades might be different. There should be a balance of 9 grades (geup) of the color belts, and 9 degrees (dan) of the Black Belt. However, this will vary between schools.

Like many other Asian Martial Art systems, Korean Taekwondo Associations have adopted a belt ranking method similar to the one created for Judo by its founder, Jigoro Kano. The number of belts, as well as the grades they represent will vary depending on the Taekwondo organization, or individual school, but typically has either 8, 9, or 10 grades of the color belt, and usually 9 or 10 Degrees of the Black Belt (although the 10th Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo is typically an honorary, retired, or posthumous rank).

Taekwondo belt ranks are divided in two main categories of student grade (geup), and expert degree (dan). The dan rank is represented by a Black Belt, whereas the geup students wear various color belts. In early versions, fewer colors were used, and each color represented more than one grade, sometimes with one or more stripes of tape on the end of the belt to denote a higher grade. In more recent years, most Taekwondo organizations have utilized 9 or 10 different colors - - one color for each grade.

The order of the colors might also vary, but typically and philosophically are intended to start at the white belt (beginner), and get gradually darker toward the Black Belt. Originally, Brown was used as the highest grade with no Red Belt, then Red sometimes replaced the Brown. Now, Brown and Red are often used, but which comes first varies between associations and schools. The color of the belt as well as their number and order is not as significant as the grade (geup) of the student. The grades begin with a higher number being the lowest rank (IE: 10th geup, 9th geup, or 8th geup), and the lowest number (1st geup) being the highest rank of the color belts before the 1st Degree of the Black Belt.

Common Belt orders:

White (9), Yellow (8, 7), Green (6, 5), Brown or Red (4, 3, 2, 1), Black (1st through 9th Degree)

White (9), Yellow (8, 7), Green (6, 5), Blue (4, 3), Brown (2), Red (1), Black

White (10), Yellow (9), Gold (8), Orange (7), Green (6), Purple (5), Blue (4), Red (3), Brown (2, 1), Black

Answer 3

Usually around 8 colors, depends on school, many do not break down the colors into different tiers for each kyu-for example having 4 yellow belts with different colored small stripes for each advanced level. Most just signify your level with a solid color and may have more than one black belt 1st, degree, 2d, etc. See below-
