Meaning of Belt Colors                 Practitioners of Tae Kwon Do wear belts which represent their level of skill and experience.  These colors are presented in the order in which a student will advance in the art. White- Means that a student is pure or without knowledge of the control of the mind over the body. Yellow- Symbolizes that the student, likened to a seed, is beginning to see the sunlight. Green- Represents the student, the seedling, just beginning to grow. Blue- Symbolizes the young plant growing and reaching for the sky. Red- Signifies the ripening of the plant.  The student has good technical knowledge which can be dangerous since he or she still lacks the proper control and discipline. Black- Symbolizes the blend of all the color belts and the fifteen grades of knowledge to form a degree.  The student is approaching the beginning of Tae Kwon Do mastery.
