The Meaning of the Green Belt (6th Kyu)
Profiles . Styles . Training notesThis is a repost from January 2006 that someone requested. And since I just had three more students advance in rank I thought I would oblige…
Green is the color of life and growth. The green belt indicates the beginning of your life as a Martial Artist and growth as a person. We live in the present but for the future, and growth is necessary and essential to that journey. Growth stimulates change, which we must accept even though change often causes feelings of insecurity. Growth does not always come easily and is rarely without some discomfort or pain, but the achievements of our previous growth and the memory of those pains should motivate us to work harder. You begin with the Green belt so that you will always be reminded of the importance of this growth that will lead to the perfection of your Self.

I am so excited that I have finally earned my first belt. I look forward to continue in the club and to work hard ((hopefully focus more)) and learn new things. Thanks so much to everyone who’s helped me!
