A YMCA is not a Taekwondo Association, but a location where Taekwondo may be taught. These classes are done outside the realm of an official Taekwondo dojang (school), yet should be connected to a central authority and governing body through a well established chain of command. The person teaching Taekwondo at a YMCA might be qualified and certified as a Black Belt and/or Taekwondo Instructor, or they might not be.

Any rules pertaining to stripes on a belt would be at the discretion of that Instructor, and the affiliated Taekwondo organization (if any). Each Taekwondo school and association has different rules and procedures pertaining to belt color, order, and stripes, so it would be best to ask your own instructor. While you are at it, check their credentials to verify legitimacy with the backing of an established Taekwondo Federation.

That depends on your school and style. Some are set up for one two or three strips. Some styles do not put stripes on a red belt. And in my style, a red belt is only worn by a 9th or 10th degree black belt. Your instructor will be able to tell you.

That is very difficult to say. Red belt means different things in different styles. In our style it is for a 9th and 10th degree black belt. In others it is a kyu rank below brown belt.

Hi. my cousins and I are putting on a play that requires a Karate belt. We don't have any belts or suits. Is there a substitute I could use to replace them?

A karate belt is typically many layers of material sown together with many stitches. The simplest thing in your case, if you can't borrow one from someone is to use a sash instead. Just fold it into a strip about two inches wide.


How does karate help people?

Karate effects people in many ways. Some good. Karate teaches respect and self-defense. It improves self-confidence. A good teacher will be sure that the students understand the right way to use it and the right times to use it. There can be BAD things about karate. 1. Injury is a possibility, usually because 2. Teaches dangerous moves that most kids use improperly which means they are not paying attention to class and are not learning what is being taught. In my own personnel experience a family member threatened me with his karate. I also noticed bad behavior since he started karate. And in some cases, people will use their karate skills to intimidate other non-karate people. A person might intimidate another karate person with their belt level. These types of people are not learning the martial art, but simply the martial skills associated with the martial art. They give the art a bad name and are not welcome in my school!
