FCMA Black Belt System

The First Class Martial Arts Belt System is unique. It allows students to learn and develop their skills in a rewarding and effective manner. The system allows the student to physically develop flexibility, balance, strength, and confidence with each new belt. Each new belt brings the student one step closer to their ultimate goal: Black Belt.

Here's how it works.
Students begin with a White Belt.

The Belt System progresses as follows:

White Belt
White with Gold Stripe
Solid Gold
Orange
Purple
Green
Blue
Tan
Tan High

Brown
Brown High
Red
Red High
Recommended Black Belt
Black Belt 
 

Performance Rating System
Promotion to each new belt is not "automatic". Each student's eligibility testing is based on his or her performance in each of these five categories:

  1. Attendance And Commitment

  2. Spirit And Energy For Excellence

  3. Knowledge Of Curriculum

  4. Improvements In Fitness

  5. Martial Arts Protocol
