Disregarding the belt system

in over half of the kung fu schools in the uk, the coloured belt system is disregarded. when i say this i mean that it has no use and in a way, i am all for this point of view. my reason being that there are simple flaws. where as in all karate, taekwando, judo and other korean or japanese martial arts there is the belt system. i think it is wrong as for example.
i could start karate when i was 10, say i became a black belt at the age of 17. then i stop for 45 years. in these years i drink, smoke and abuse my body in other stressful ways. yet in some schools i can go back to the same dojo and be respected as a black belt master.... why someone plz comment.
in this i am not trying to disrespect anyones shifu/sensei's way of knowledge.

Tae Kwon Do is inferior

90% of TKD black belts can't fight on the streets. Look up Bushidokan sometime, an orange belt in Busidokan is equal to most black belts in over all fighting skills in TKD. TKD has been diluted big time, they hand out black belts like candy. It should take years to earn a black belt, not a year and a half to two years to be bought in a TKD school.

Belts vs Belts

Now i have been asking myelf why is eatch belt diffrent like for instance

Cmaf taekwondo

Basic club - White suit
Black belt club - red suit
Masters Club - Blue suit
League club - Black suit

White belt 3 stripes on belt in order for next belt
yellow belt 4 stripes on belt in order for next belt
orange belt 5 stripes on belt in order for next belt
green belt 5 stripes on belt in order for next belt
purpel belt 6 stripes on belt in order for next belt
blue belt 6 stripes on belt in order for next belt
brown belt 7 stripes on belt in order for next belt
red belt 8 stripes on belt in order for next belt
red belt 2nd degree for red belt dont need stripes
half red half black belt dont need stripes
Black belt 1st degree 2 degree 3 degree
4 degree 5 degree 6 degree

it takes 3 months to get a belt but when u get to your half black half red it is very hard to pass a belt test and it takes 6 months to qulafie for a belt test



---------------------------------------------------
wtf taekwondo

white belt
yellow belt
green belt
blue belt
red belt
poom
black belt

it takes 3 to 5 months to quliafie for a belt test i dont know if there are degrees i think they are called geup
--------------------------------------------------
Itf taekwondo


White, yellow, green, blue and red are the coloured belts. There are two grades on each colour, thus 10 in total. Coloured belts start with 10th Gup (grade) and ends with 1st Gup.

it takes 3 to 5 months to qualifie for next belt

-------------------------------------------------

if u had noticed that the belts are all in difrrent orders

now lets say a

cmaf orange belt were to verse a wtf green belt

does this mean in anyway that the wtf green belt knows more?

No it doesent

--------------------------------------------------

now lets say a

cmaf green belt were to verse a a wtf green belt

does this mean in anyway that they are the same level?

no the cmaf green belt knows more because he has worked harder for his green belt
---------------------------------------------------

now lets say a itf member has a red belt and a wtf has a poom belt

is the wtf taekwondo member a higher belt

no and yes because the poom belt has worked harder
--------------------------------------------------

not cmaf taekwondo has more belts does this mean its the best taekwondo style around?

No and no again it just means the cmaf style is a little longer

---------------------------------------------------

lets get to the point

i was in a tournament and i am a cmaf member and i was up against a wtf member

i was a blue belt

he was a red belt

and guess who won

i did

thou he was supposed to be a higher belt

but i trained longer

Shaolin Kung Fu Ranks

I noticed that either this link is not working, or there is nothing in it.

For Shaolin Kung-Fu it goes
Grey
White
Yellow
Orange
Green
Red
Purple
Blue
Navy Blue
Brown
Black

And then there are 10 levels of black sash.
We also have three sets of tassels (thinks thats how u spell it) there are red, gold, platinum.
If you have no tassels you are a Sidi
If you have red or Gold tassels you are a Sihing (sijeh for females)
If you have platinum tassels you are a Sifu
Once u become level 10 black sash, you are Sijo

Martial Art Ranks

Curious enough, what is everyone's opinion on rank structure and martial art belts. No offense to any martial artist who has worked tremendoulsly hard in life to earn their position or belt, but I believe that there isn't simply enough time in one mans life to be concerned with a color of a belt. Belts are earned nowdays with Katas learned and memorized and not the actuality of fighting, or so I have witnessed. I believe two things, Student and Teacher as ranks, and Fighter or Not Fighter. There is no belt that can rank your personality as a martial artist, your knowledge is only revealed by the way you treat others.

Respect?
I am a student of Kajukenpo Chaun Fa. And we do full contact sparring, so when we get into a real fight we know how to properly defend ourselves and counter. And I assume almost all of use are Martial Artist, So show each other some respect. Dosen't matter what you learn or study, Respect is given to all fellow fighters

Fearless Trailer
Jet Li portrays the life of martial arts master Huo Yuanjia. The plot differs greatly from the actual life of Huo Yuanjia. The movie starts off with Huo Yuanjia fighting 3 Westerners: a boxer, a spearfighter and a fencer. Huo Yuanjia beats them all, and makes it his habit to bow to the opponent. Just as he is about to fight Anno Tanaka, the final contestant, Huo Yuanjia has a flashback. The story flashes back to when Huo Yuanjia was a small...
