1. Start by finding exact center of belt

2. Place center of belt on middle of body

3. Wrap the belt once around and back to the front

4. Place left side over right 

5. Tuck left side under and pull up behind both layers

6. Tug slightly to tighten

7. Place right side over left

8. Loop under other end to make knot

9. Pull sideways to tighten belt fully
 

10. Belt ends should be of equal length

11. Belt crosses over at rear.

Note:

Some schools teach Step # 4 as right side over
left first followed by left over right. The only
difference is the final knot will be reversed.
Consult your instructor on which option to use.

Stripes must end up on left side of body.
To achieve this, begin with stripe
side of belt in your right hand and it will
finish correctly.
