Lower Belts
Levels in Shao-Lin Kung Fu
As in the rest of the martial arts, our teaching system has belts of different colors to mark the level of each student. The initial or lower belts are white, yellow, blue and green. From there, one advances to the 3 brown belts and to the black belts, which go by levels without changing the color.
In order to advance from one belt to the next, you have to meet certain requirements and be examined in front of the teacher to confirm that you have the level to move up to the next belt.
