Taekwondo White White belt for TaeKwonDo?--- stripes? (read more)?
Okay, just started TaeKwonDo, our instructor doesn't tell us squat. How many of those "tips" are there to advance to yellow. What is the (I believe) 16-step form called? (Where you keep your fist close to your chest, parallel to the ground) Are we suppose to get a book or anything? How long should the process from white to yellow take?
What is the flip over the elevated rectangle mat called. Is there something called horsecrab????
Ugh, it is moving so fast.
Thank you so much people!
Two issues: first what the previous poster said and second your question.
Much of what the other person said about TKD is true. It is a sport, not a good self-defense unless taught Korean style. There are numerous arts that are good for self-defense including kung fu, jkd, bjj, hapkido, kempo, mauy thai etc.
Here is the differance between a sport and defense:
sport you learn to fight for points and kick high
defense, low kicks and strikes include attacks on sensitive areas.
But TKD is better than nothing and most 1st Dans would be able to win (I think) in a normall street fight.
Your questions. Each school is differant so forms could differ some. There typically is no book, but you learn by watching, trying, and asking for help after class. The class goes fast, which in my opinion is good as long as the instructor is willing to work with you after class. Imagine yourself a brown belt and going slow..you would not learn much, but by setting the bar high and forcing you to really watch you will learn. It just takes time to learn and to get your body to essentially learn how to walk all over again. Everyone goes through this.
As to yellow belt...two months is prob about right. But thats going 4 days a week at 2 hours a go and practicing at home. Again, each school is differant...Don't focus so much on the belt, but instead on what you are learning. The belts will come the more you practice.

Taekwondo is a Korean martial art practiced all over the world. Its popularity stems from many reasons. Virtually everyone who is involved with this art agrees that it is an outstanding way to improve physical fitness, mental focus, and self-discipline. Children who study taekwondo often exhibit greater motivation and increased self-esteem. Besides these benefits, participants can train for competition and learn effective self-defense techniques. The authors have chosen 38 of taekwondo's most effective breakfalls, stances, strikes, kicks, blocks, and steps. Each of these, singly and in combination, is described and illustrated with clear language and photos. The book serves well as a companion to formal instruction or as a stand-alone text. In Taekwondo Techniques & Tactics you'll learn the proper way to stretch, how conditioning will improve your performance, and foolproof strategies for defeating your opponent in the ring. Novices will have no trouble recognizing how to perform techniques. The chapters on the origins, traditions, and language of taekwondo provide a good introduction to the art, including advice on getting started and choosing an instructor. Experienced students will appreciate the level of detail and the tips for improving their techniques. They'll also appreciate the chapters on tactics, conditioning, and preparing for competition. Sidebars on self-defense point out adaptations for effective street defense, whenever these differ from competition techniques or tactics. Advice on competition and tactics is especially strong since both authors were champion competitors. Seabourne is a two-time Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and Pan-American champion and a silver medalist in the World Taekwondo Championships.

Chon Ji - White Belt Form
Taekwondo - White Belt to Yellow Belt?
Hi,
how long dose it take on average to go form the white to yellow belt in taekwondo?
How long dose it take to get a black one?
cheers!
It takes about 2 months to go from white to yellow. But it'll depend on when you started in relation when your school has testings. (If you started too close to the nearest testing you may have to wait 3 or 4 months before they have another one.) Your school will have it's own requirements. You should ask your instructor or an advanced student.
At the school I attend it takes a minimum of 2.5 years to get to 1st Degree black belt. But, to do that you have to be lucky enough to start at the exact right time to have the required time in rank to test for each new belt. And you have to be talented enough to skip a rank. And you can't miss hardly any practices. And you have to do a lot of extra work - practices, teaching, demonstrations, helping at testing, etc. Again, it'll depend you your school. Check with them.
I think I've only heard of one person doing it in 2.5 years. Most people take 3 - 5 years.
Don't worry too much about getting that black belt, it's a very long term kind of goal. Right now your focus should be on perfecting the fundamentals. It's important for you to do well now so you don't develop bad habits that you'll have to work 10x as hard to fix later. Copy the instructors as best you can, pay attention to the details, and be enthusiastic!
Taekwondo White Belt How long do belts in taekwondo last?
Hey there, i did taekwondo for a couple of months when i was thirteen and managed to get to yellow belt with green tag. I have not been back since i gave it up to do thaiboxing instead. Now im 23 and thinking about taking up taekwondo again tommorow and i feel like its a stupid question to ask am i still a yellow belt green tag or am i a white belt since i have forgotten everything i ever learnt there? Thanks, Sam
I'm a teacher.
If you came to me with your certificate and previous rank in a system that is the same as I teach, plus I have heard of or know your instructor, I would let you keep your rank.
If you showed humility and decided to just start over again at white belt, I'd be pleasently surprised and impressed.
Besides, I would be able to tell that you had some prior training anyway, and you'd be back at yellow belt green tag before you know it.
I switched from Tangsoodo to Taekwondo and was allowed to be jumped back to the Tangsoodo rank once I learned the material. So relax, man, you'll be ok.

Pencak silat refers to more than 800 individual schools of martial arts across the 13,000 islands of Indonesia. According to legend, they were used to fight against Dutch invaders. Later outlawed by the Dutch, this hybrid system is known as pencak in Java and Bali, and silat in Sumatra. The single term pencak silat was coined after Indonesia was unified, and then accepted in 1973. Some recent silat systems have adopted the Japanese martial art tradition of denoting rank with different-colored belts. The art has become popular around the world and has also developed a sporting tradition with its own world championships.
Pencak lineage
Knowledge of the art has been passed orally from teacher to student, so written records are few. Soldiers and warriors are known to have trained in silat forms in the Srivijaya kingdom in Sumatra between the 7th and 14th centuries and in the Majapahit kingdom on Java between the 13th and 16th centuries. Yet archeological evidence suggests silat may have been used as early as the 6th century. Many silat schools trace their lineage to the Buginese warriors, a band of tough mercenaries renowned for their combat skills. When the Dutch occupied the islands between the 17th and 20th centuries, the practice went underground and reemerged only after independence in 1949. Traditional Indonesian dances and rituals are thought to contain aspects of the ancient art.
Styles and weapons
Pencak silat has no standardized techniques, partly due to the fact that differences between schools depend on the environment in which students train. So, for example, the footwork techniques of urban styles differ from those of jungle variants. The Javanese people tend to use the art as a self-defense form. Even so, training regimes all include instruction in empty-hand techniques followed by weapons training.
Weapons include some common Indonesian fighting tools, such as sticks, staves, and rods made of bamboo, steel, or wood. The "cabang" is an unusual, three-pronged knife thought to derive from the trident. The "kerambit" is a small, curved blade that women often conceal in their hair. The "sabit" is a sickle used as a blocking, striking, and slashing weapon. The "keris" is a curving blade that is washed in acid. The "tedang" is a common sword with either a single-or double-sided blade.
Master and student
The large number of distinct pencak silat schools in Indonesia are the result of extremely localized styles that have arisen when a master in a village teaches his own method. This teaching may include aspects of shamanism, animism, healing, and other spiritual practices. Most silat players train in spiritual awareness methods, learning to harness what they believe are supernatural powers.
In general, would-be students offer gifts in order to be accepted by a traditional master. These may include a knife, which symbolizes sharpness of attitude and spirit, and a roll of white cloth, which the master keeps in a sacred place and uses to wrap the corpse of the student should he be killed.
The blood of a ritually slaughtered chicken may be spread on the ground where the student expects to train-this signifies the blood the student would shed in fighting had he decided not to study the art. So, the relationship of master and student becomes akin to a blood relationship, such as that between father and son.
Diverse influences
The hand and foot strikes, locking techniques, and throws suggest the art has had Indian and Chinese influence. The throws-typically launched from a very low stance or a deep crouch-are often thought of as the silat signature move. Between the 7th and 12th centuries, Indonesia was influenced by Mahayana Buddhism and this, together with the arts, weapons, and philosophies that Indians and Chinese introduced, helped to shape the art. Experts believe that Hindu culture and its grappling techniques influenced silat groundwork and, with the later arrival of Islam, came the distinct "jambia"-the short, curved Arab dagger that probably inspired the pencak silat keris blade.
