How to tie a karate belt

Find the middle of the belt and place this at the centre of your waist at the front

Take the end in your right hand and wrap it around your back bringing it to the front

Now take the end in your left hand, wrap it around your back on top of the other piece, bringing it to the front

Take that piece (now coming from the right) and tuck it under the other two pieces and pull to the left. You should now be able to tighten the belt to your size.

Take an end in each hand and fold the piece in your right hand over towards your left hip

Fold the piece in your left hand over the other end and point it towards the floor

Now take the piece pointing towards your left hip in your left hand

Grab the end pointing towards the floor with your right hand through the hole created at the front

Pull the end back through the hole with your right hand and tighten to form a knot

If the ends of your belt are more than 1 inch different in length, you will need to retie your belt, starting a little bit to the left or right from the middle of the belt in step 1.
