The red belt signifies the intense heat from the sun that continues to burn inside the student who pushes forward toward the goal of becoming a BLACK belt. Begin to master self-developed techniques. The maturation is still a slow process, one that begins and ends at the beginning, which of course, is not an ending, but a beginning, again. The red belt also signifies higher rank and the wearer shows caution as his or her knowledge and physical abilities continue to increase. The red belt is also a sign for the opponent to be careful of the wearer. Continue to exhibit flawless self-control, and show mastery of "all" previous techniques, another step closer to the BLACK belt.
