Martial arts is a hard technique. This is the order of the belts.
White, yellow, yellow-white, orange, orange-white, blue, then blue-white, green, green-white, purple, purple-white, brown, brown-white, black, black and then 5 stripes. Then a black belt with a gold stripe.
Punches
One punch is called the jab. The other is a hook punch. There is a cross punch too. I forget what the kicks are called.
And I think it is sort of fun, but not the best. Because they are a little hard on you sometimes. Like they make you do at least white belt with four pieces of tape or higher.
It is on Mondays, Wednesday and Friday. I am a white belt with one tape, my friend Danny has two tapes, my friend Andreas is a blue belt with a white stripe and two pieces of tape.

Comment by richj January 12, 2008 @ 3:05 amEven though I took karate, and I watch you every time I can, I still feel that you are just introducing it to me. I was amazed that you could write this much. You don’t know who I am.
