Sharing buttons:
hi Sean Hill from Marshall you in this
video I'm going to show you how to tie
your belt or D for Taekwondo as we teach
it in our program now before I begin I'm
going to change into my Taekwondo
uniform or as it's known in Korean a doe
block and then we'll gets done all right
it's a good thing I'm very efficient at
putting my uniform on now this
particular uniform or doe balk happens
to be a black v-neck or black collar
uniform the reason is is because I'm a
black belt holder or you Dondre in
Korean now if you're just starting
Taekwondo you're going to begin with a
white collar or white v-neck uniform and
within the packaging of that uniform
you're going to get a brand new spiffy
white belt or D now the first thing that
we want to do with this belt is we're
going to unfold it and find the center
the next thing we're going to do is
we're going to find the side that has
the label or the tag that shows us the
size of the belt and the reason we're
going to do that is because we want to
make sure that that label is on our
right side so I'm going to flip this
belt so that this label is on the right
side the next thing I want to do is I
want to make sure that label is inside
so I'm going to flip this belt over and
I have that label show up on the bottom
or inside of the belt now I'm going to
find the center and I'm going to place
the center of the belt right in the
front on my hip and as I wrap the belt
behind me I'm going to take the right
side and go underneath the left and I'm
going to take my left hand and as I
bring it around to the front I'm going
to tuck that layer of belt underneath
the layer over the top of it and I'm
going to bring the right side around to
the front and I'm going to cross that
over the top
so if I've done my job
correctly I tooked one side completely
under the other and I end up with the
label on the right side and facing me
the other side is going to be blank now
the reason we do this is because we want
our stripes later on down the road or
our Dons to show up on the right so we
have to make this belt tie a certain way
now I've got my belt crossed in the
front the side coming from the right is
crossing over and ending up on the left
the side going from the left is
underneath and crossing over and ending
up on the right now I'm going to take
that layer on the very top and I'm going
to tuck it in and under both layers on
the left side and flip it over once I
flip it over I need to make sure that
both ends are roughly the same size so
at this point you'll see the label on
the right no label on the left now I'm
going to take this label side and flip
it one time so now I've got my label
facing up then I'm going to take the
side that's on my left and layer it over
the side with the label then I'm going
to tuck it underneath and pull it
through the center when I pull it
through the center I'm going to pull
them talk to both sides and then I'm
going to pull them forward now you'll
notice my label is now on my left side
and the blank side on the white belt is
on my right now later on this might have
a stripe on it if you have a colored
belt the knot that I make is open and
it's open to my left side if I've done a
good job both ends are exactly the same
or very close and they'll lay nice and
straight alright so I'm taking off the
white belt and now I'm going to show
you tying with a black belt and we're
going to see why I emphasize label sign
and no label side so imagine in the
future you've been promoted you either
have a stripe where you've made it to
black belt now I'm going to unfold my
black belt and I'm going to look for the
side of the stripe or dawn and it will
look for the side that might have a
master's name on it and I'm going to
flip the belt accordingly I want that
name on the right and I want the dawn of
the stripe on the left and make sure
that the stitching is face out now find
the center just as we did on the white
belt this would be the label side on my
right this would be the non label side
and want to place the center right in
front of my body on my hip I'm going to
wrap it around I'm gonna take the right
side and I'm gonna have it go underneath
and I'm going to bring my left hand
around and as I bring my left hand
around I'm tucking that layer underneath
the right layer that I went over the top
of it now I'm going to take the right
and bring it around to the front cross
it over and on top at this point if I've
done a good job I've got one layer or
one showing layer up going all the way
around now I'll take this side with the
name and we're going to flip it so that
the stitching is on the bottom side and
then I'm going to take this sign coming
up with the stripe and I'm going to pull
it underneath flip it over
name sign stripe side
take the name take the strength and flip
it over the top of it tuck in that
stripe underneath pull it through let
the ends fall
see if you've got two even sides not
facing the left side and I've got my
strike or my dawn on the right name of
the master on the left now that I've
shown you how to tie a belt for
Taekwondo remember to never wash the
belt itself but keep your uniform as
clean and wrinkle free as possible after
all how you present yourself shows
others just how much you do care about
yourself and what you do
