Surrey - Newton Martial Arts - Newton Taekwondo Black Belt meaning?

Surrey - Newton Martial Arts - Newton Taekwondo Black Belt meaning?
Newton - Surrey Taekwondo Black belt represents opposite of a taekwondo white belt.  White belt means innocence and a new start in our Surrey Taekwondo Academy. Thus, black belt represents not so innocent; a knowledge gained in their studies for kids jong kim martial arts in Newton, BC and Surrey, BC. 

In ITF Newton martial arts, there are 9 levels of Taekwondo black belt levels called Dan in Korean hangul.   The nine black belts levels can be compared to post secondary education system personified by Bachelor’s degree, Masters degree, and Doctorate degree.  The meanings will be described as follows:
 
Taekwondo black belt levels from 1st to 4th Dan represent a new beginning of taekwondo learning.  Achieving first Dan represents you have mastered the basics and are now ready to move into the finer details of your Newton martial arts and Surrey Taekwondo mastery.  These four stages of early black belt represent a more intensive taekwondo studies beyond the basics.  You are equipping yourself with higher stages of learning.  Taekwondo studies suddenly jumps into further intricate and deeper taekwondo studies into advanced hand and foot areas.  ITF surrey - newton Taekwondo patterns offer significant and more complexed coordination skills and new forms of self defense.
 
Taekwondo black belt levels from 5th to 7th Dan represent   further new advanced Newton martial arts concepts as demonstrated by exciting pattern memorization.  ITF Taekwondo patterns names represents importantly Korean historical events and meanings as such.  They are beautiful to watch as they offer intrinsic artistic qualities unique to taekwondo and karate in Newton, BC – Delta, BC - Surrey, BC.
 
Taekwondo black belts levels from 8th- 9th Dan represent the highest levels at Jong Kim Martial Arts in Newton, BC – Surrey, BC – Delta, BC.  To reach 9th is highest taekwondo level and one who does so, is considered a taekwondo grandmaster!  If one is lucky enough, he/she may reach this pinnacle level of Surrey - Newton Taekwondo within one’s lifetime. 
 
The first 4 taekwondo Dans are demonstrated through incredible physical skills and maturity within the black belt’s way of thinking.  The following 2 Dans continue to showcase fantastic physical skills and a further maturing of taekwondo philosophy.  The grandmaster level represents a spiritual and philosophical approach. 
 
At our Surrey – Newton Martial Arts academy, reaching a 4th dan qualifies being addressed as Master.  It is a great achievement in the intermediary taekwondo black belt journey.
 
I hope this helps as you are on your Surrey – Newton Taekwondo journey for further excellence!
