What is a "yellow belt"?
A yellow belt is a beginner's level in many martial arts, representing the first significant achievement in a student's training. It typically comes after the white belt, which signifies a starting point, and indicates that the student has learned basic techniques and is ready for further development. The yellow belt is a symbol of growth and progress, but it is just the beginning of a student's journey toward higher ranks, such as orange, green, or black belts. Each belt level requires dedication, practice, and mastery of specific skills.
