Adults usually get one stripe and it's considered a half belt promotion.
it's difficult to explain how to tie a belt. But let me try :)
From behind (to show your kid how to tie it),
Hold a short portion with your right hand, and direct the belt to the left. Wrap all the way around the body twice and you should have a short end directed to the left. Take that short end going to the left and wrap in under the double layer of belts (to circle or wrap the belt together in the front) Wrap it from the bottom (with your right hand you should be curling towards the body with your fingers)
so now you should have two ends and the belt should be wrapped together tightly in the front.
Now take the half in your right hand and do a little flip to flip it over. Take the half in your left hand and put it ontop of the one you just flipped and loop it under. (so if your right hand is palm down, your left hand would be palm down on top of y our right hand, curl your left fingers and that would be the direction that the belt would need to go) pull it through, then pull it out straight to the left and right and tighten.
Hope this helps :) in the end, the knot should look like a fortune cookieWhat do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?that guy is a complete idiot, the stripes on the black belt are levels above black belt, there not for %26quot; a good front kick%26quot; dumb ***!

What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?sujith_005@yahoo.com tie itWhat do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?the stripe means they are close to promoting to the next belt rank.What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?Acctually a very good question. First with the stripes. Usually a stripe signifies a level change in the student's achievments, if a Do-jung practices stripes and stripe tests, usually you need to achieve 3 to 4 stripes before you can be promoted to the next belt level or color. Every do-jung is different in this practice. As for the second question about how to tie the belt. There is two common practices inTae-Kwon-Do, one which is usually taught to the begginers to make it easier to tie, however it does appear much more sloppy as compared to the more %26quot;advanced%26quot; way.The Beginner's Way: Find the middle of the belt and place that middle point right below your belly button, wrap both sides around the back, let cross over eacother in the back, letting both ends of the beltcome back around and no cross over eachother in the front. Take one side of the belt and tuck it behind the first wrapping from underneath, pulling tight the belt, and then tie a half knot in front.
More %26quot;advanced%26quot; method: find about the 1/4 mark of the belt and place it right below the belly button. Wrap the 3/4 part of the belt around the body twice. This should form a nicer looking wrap, then follow through with the rest of the knot method from the beginners knot. I would try this method a few times until you got it right before sending my son in to class.What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?its mean that they are in the middle level, some school use that stripe, some don'ts.

I have to give you some food for thought on your child's belt. I know as a mother you want to help your child as much as possible. If you begin to tie his belt for him you will NOT be helping, you will actually be hurting him. My reasoning is this; if you tie it for him it delays his learning process. The belt is a sacred thing in my system; it represents your identity in the school. The art of handling the belt includes the method of tying it. It is a meaningful process.
The school should be teaching him how to tie it just as they should be teaching him other aspects of the martial arts.
Furthermore, if someone has not volunteered to help your child then part of the process is that your son must be humble enough to ask someone for help. This is another part of the art.
It will teach your son the following concepts, humility, respect, independence and this will, all lead to self-confidence.
However, if the school is not teaching these sorts of things you may want to question the caliber of his training.
I am not saying you shouldn't help him, I am just saying that doing it for him is not helping him. It is enabling him more than anything. After all, what happens on that fateful day when he gets in a fight? You will not be there to block a punch for him; he will be by himself with only his training to rely on. If his training is below par he will be in trouble. I mean no disrespect mostly I am concerned about young people's well being and people paying too much for unaffective training.
On a side note, I see many younger students at other school gleefully running around in there martial art belts. I see them at the mall, on the streets, leaving the school like this.
We can not do this at our school. The only time your belt is worn outside the school is when you are instructed to do so by Sensei.
The belt (and rank) is a sacred thing. They are not to be thrown around as if they are common things.What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?when I was in taekwondo a few years back
the stripes meant certain levels of character achievemants like
red= respect
blue= control
black= confidence
etc...
On my red recommended belt I recieved a gold stripe on the end of it which meant in one month I could test for black belt.
I cant really describe the tying part but Ill try:
fold the belt in half, open it up, keeping it centered, put it on the center of your sons center, like his bellybutton, then wrap the left side around all the way to the right and right side all the way to left. Now you should have two belt parts in front. Now put your right side over left and bring through and tie. then put left over right and get your knot!What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?The stripes mean different things depending on the style of TKD.
In each style the stripes represent the level or rank.
WTF style: (belt levels: white, yellow, blue, red, black. There are other colours for the junior levels) Each belt has 3 stripe levels. eg. Yellow 1, Y2, Y3, Blue 1, B2, B3, Red 1, R2, R3, Cho Dan Bo (Red-Black tip), then Black and the Dan levels.
ITF style: belt levels: White, White with Yellow stripe, Yellow, Yellow with Green stripe, Green with Blue stripe, Blue, Blue with Red stripe, Red, Red with Black stripe, Black, then Dan Levels.
These stripes are generally a bit of electrical tape on the belt.
My club also has club stripes that go on the other end of our belt to represent our knowledge of steps, sparring, equipment use, patterns, as well as confidence, self esteme, and a few other things that the juniors get.
As for tying the belt, it depends if it is a single or a double belt. Single belts are simple, a reef knot is the way to tie it: left over right, right over left.
Double belts are very similar, the centre of the belt sits at the front, then wraps areound the back and back to the front. Once at the front again, cross over the ends over, tuck the top piece under the flat part of the belt then bring it to the top and tie it again. Basically a reef knot again but it tucks under the front part of the belt (the middle)
Hope this helps, and hope your son enjoys taekwondo. It is a great sport and great for confidence.
