In Tae Kwon-Do There Are Six Belt Colours
1. WHITE
Signifies innocence, as that of the beginning student who has no previous knowledge of Tae Kwon-Do.
2. YELLOW
Signifies earth, from which a plant sprouts and takes root as the Tae Kwon-Do foundation is being laid.
3. GREEN
Signifies the plant’s growth, as Tae Kwon-Do skills begin to develop.
4. BLUE
Signifies heaven, toward which the plant matures into a towering tree as training in Tae Kwon-Do progresses.
5. RED
Signifies danger, cautioning the student to exercise control and warning the opponent to stay away.
6. BLACK
Opposite to white, therefore signifying maturity and proficiency in Tae Kwon-Do. Also indicates the wearer’s imperviousness to darkness and fear.
