It's said that in ancient times, practitioners of martial arts had only one color belt (a.k.a. ''obi'') - white. As they trained over the years it would become stained with dirt, sweat and blood, turning dingy brown then eventually black, so you would know that a person with a black belt was exceptionally skilled in their art. |
