| | Muggle Studies Lesson 1 - Self Defense
Antonio opened up the Muggle Studies Classroom and began to prepare the room for the lesson he was about to teach. He took out a supply of textbooks and placed them on the table for each student to pick up - Types of Martial Arts then returned to the front of the classroom, waiting for the students to arrive. He hoped they would find this an interesting and beneficial lesson, there was going to be something special of interest to all young witches and wizards at the end of it, and it should prove to be a fun and enlightening day for all concerned. Even he was excited about this! |

"Taekwondo is the correct answer, and points to all of you who got it," Antonio smiled. "Now, who can explain how rank is determined under the Korean art forms? How can you tell how high a person is ranked if you were to walk into a muggle dojang and observe people practicing this discipline such as, for example, Taekwondo?"

"Don't they wear belts to distinguish status, black, white, blue brown," Antwone guessed.

Tobi was in firm agreement, and he himself was only about one more minute from saying anything. he smiled at the girl. but didn't say anything, because that was kind of the point.

"The rank of each practitioner is determined by using different colored belts. Tests are organized time to time to increase the rank of a practitioner and he is awarded a specific colored belt according to his rank. But the color of the belt varies with training, school, and the type of art being taught," Tees answered.

Evangeline's hand shot in the air again. "The rank of each practitioner is determined by using different coloured belts. Tests are organized time to time to increase the rank of a practitioner and he is awarded a specific coloured belt according to his rank. But the colour of the belt varies with training, school, and the type of art being taught." She stopped for a bit to look down at the textbook before adding. "Some schools only offer black and white belts, whereas some have white, brown, black, rainbow, etc. White being for the lowest ranking and black for the highest."

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean "The ranks in korean martial arts are determined by coloured belts. The different coloured belts varies with training and the type of art being taught. The different belts also will show other muggles who are learning the differerent levels other muggles are at which could make the muggles more determined to get to that rank which would in turn mean that they are more able to defend there selves as they have undergone more training." Vannie spoke as she raised her hand.

Christine turned her focus back to the front when she heard the Professor ask another question. I believe they wear different color belts Sir she answered. |

Camira raised her hand tentatively. Ugh. This was her worst subject. "Isn't it by belts, sir? The different colors signify different levels of advancement in the following order:White, Advanced White, Junior Yellow, Advanced Junior Yellow, Yellow, Advanced Yellow, Junior Green ,Advanced Junior Green, Green, Advanced Green, Advanced Junior Blue, Blue, Advanced Blue Junior Red, Advanced Junior Red, Red, Advanced Red I, Advanced Red II, and Black"

Anna raised her hand to reply. "You can tell the status of a person by observing the color of their belt. The order of the status colors from lowest level to highest level is white, yellow, green, brown, and black. In some Karate school and styles, the color order is white, yellow, orange, green, blue, brown, black," she said.

Lizzie, the kicking girl was still talking, resigning himself to the possibility of later pain, he whispered to them, "Please quit talking, there is social time after class, and I rather like being ahead in the points race."

Antwone shook his head at the Gryfinndor's bickering. The best way to fight for silence was to not speak at all. If no one responded, then no one would speak.

| Yeahhh, Mr White! Yeah science! Pffft! Self defence? Surely as witches and wizards they did not need to know muggle style self defence... They could use magic for Merlin's sake! DADA was far more useful than this nonsense. And what was all that confusing stuff about coloured... belts? Even with a text book under her nose Emily was confused.
