White Belt is the most important rank in the martial arts. It signifies a new beginning in your life. You are setting off on a quest for knowledge and power through the 5 elements of the warrior mandala reality-grid of potential. The earth realm theme is personal vision and strength. You can do this! Your initial challenge is to build a foundation for personal empowerment. During your first months, you will set training habits and success patterns to pave the way for the rest of your martial arts career.

Yellow Belt indicates the middle of your exploration of earth strength and confident command. You will perfect your kata "fight scenario examples", simulating what it feels like to handle successfully different forms of confrontation from start to finish.
