WARNING: THIS PAGE COULD BE UPDATED AT ANY
TIME, SO YOU SHOULD REVIEW IT OFTEN
Here you will find all the information you need to prepare you for your grading. This information includes your theory and your practical test. I hope this information helps you in giving you a better understanding about Kyokushin Karate and also gives you a better understanding of your requirements and at the same time helps you to study and prepare for it.
MEANING OF THE BELTS
Below you will find a possible interpretation of the symbolism of the belt colors. I hope this will give a further understanding the sense in which the Obi (belts) colors mean. Belts colors are not only to reflect growth in technique, but also in character.
The Yellow Belt-Green Stripe (Firmness)
At this level the students are living the Yellow belts
and preparing for the new level. So they should use this level to perfect what
is required from them on the Yellow belt level. So the same meaning of the
Yellow Belts is valid on this level.
At Yellow belt the students should learn to focus his power by the use of
the "Hara" (Lower abdomen) and the "Tanden" (Point where all the energy is
concentrated, the center of gravity in our body) which is located just behind of
the not of the belt.
The students should concentrate in control the different techniques and put
emphasis on power and speed, as well as coordination.
