You may notice that some karate schools have different colors of belts and different orders. They are tailored to the martial arts type and the school.Â
Karate belts are a way to determine the level of skill and a grading system which is similar to the school system like Grade 1 or Grade 2 etc.
As per Mr Miyagi in the original karate kid movie, other than to determine someone's skill, a belt is just to hold up your pants, which we support 100 percent.
