[@diamondeggs7942]

I find that the second method is much more efficient, it holds alot longer than other ways

[@jcaldwell439]

You can tuck both ends of the belt in the third method shown. Watch the Rener Gracie video about how to tie the BJJ belt. He calls it the "superlock" variation. I finally figured out how to do it, and I'm gonna tie my belt that way from now on when I'm at the academy training. Looks better, and won't come untied.

[@za.monolit]

This helped me so much! surprisingly better than the other videos.

[@ben4627-p8o]

interesting name lmao

[@za.monolit]

@@ben4627-p8o thanks mate

[@aquariuskiwilog]

Wow I think this might be the best belt tying video I've seen thus far; I can stop searching now. Love it how you take it nice and super slow, and also include adjustment as that will happen in real life and how to deal with it. Thank you kindly!

[@OllieW501]

This video is very useful, i posted it on out club's Facebook page here in UK. Many thanks for making it :-)

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thank you for sharing

[@Jemmpl]

Ey you stole my first name! xD

[@ignaciogarcia938]

hermosa canción dani! muy conmovedora...no tenes techo negra..dale pa delante! te espera un Gran futuro

[@RavenscarGhost]

Wow, I needed this! I've gotten so tired of my belt getting untied during practice using the first method. Hopefully my sensei won't freak out when I start tying my belt differently than he does, he's a little old fashioned.

[@popo-bx1fp]

Real, my sensei will scold you if your foot is the slightest bit forward in aikido training, because the "traditional way" conists of your foot facing all the way out. He has pictures of O'sensei (I think thats his name) all over the walls for tradition.

[@TrishCanyon8]

Best of belt tie videos. Thanks.

[@atvanael]

That last method, with extra tuck, is something you can see in a lot of old pictures of judo and jujutsu fighters - I've wondered sometimes why people don't seem to do it anymore in many places, when it seems to have been the regular way at one time. The founder of the karate style I follow (Wado-ryu) also insisted on wearing his belt with both ends tucked back through, as he was originally a jujutsu guy and didn't like it coming loose from people grabbing onto it. I've done it a lot since starting judo, and also do it with all the little kids' belts at karate, since some of them can't figure out the square knot by themselves if it comes undone.

[@88Musk]

Adam I noticed that also. There is one other way I learned in TKD before I started in Judo that he did't show. A combination of the 1st and third method.

[@Artix902]

I think I'll stay with the basic fold lol

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thank you. Hope one of them works for you!

[@skyless7304]

This is genuinely helpful. Thank you

[@haydenwelds603]

GREAT! THE BEST VIDEO I'VE SEEN SO FAR...THANK-YOU

[@leavemealone2006]

Thanks for sharing! My belt always came untied during sparring, but since I started using the 3rd way, my belt keeps a nice knot all throughout class!

[@PrayDark]

You explaind everything very very well. But isn't the third the traditional Karate version. Well at least every Dan in my Dojo does it that way. But maybe that they watched your video.

[@robertthomas3777]

There is fourth which is flatter and firmer which doesn’t cause the belt to fray.

[@EugeneGolovan]

Thanks for clear demos! I wanted to check out other methods people use to tie belts. My kids visit Aikido school and we use the 3rd method to tie their belts. Definitely the best one if you do not want to get untied belt! Have never happened to us.

[@havoc3183]

Thanks man I'm Going Back Into Martial Arts Pretty Soon And I forgot How To Tie My Belt This Vid helped Alot!!

[@brianfoley4328]

Eloquently simple...very well done video.

[@ALTAO85]

Juste un petit détail sur les deux longueurs de ceinture devant. Celles-ci sont inégales parce qu'elles correspondent philosophiquement à l'idéogramme du TAO. Le lien étend comme une attaque et une esquive ... Etc.… Félicitations.

[@danieldavy]

Good work with the video, well explained. I think this flat looking knot is similar to the third one, but both ends go in between the two layers wrapped, instead of only one (the left one). Not so sure, but I think that's it. See you!

[@Reddragondiaries]

That's how I beat my opponents these days!

[@s216674]

Good demo. Couldn't you do number 3 by starting with number 1 providing you make sure the layers overlap properly? It appears that you are ending up in the same place before the last modification.

[@h930hec]

really helpful , about to go to a judo grading , thanks!

[@genesdn3312]

thank you sooooooo much!! while in training or in competition my belt just loose and my sensei gets mad at me all the time XD the third knot seems really nice!!!! I'll try it! thanks! ^.^

[@Reddragondiaries]

The third one should do the trick. You can put both ends through the same way if you have enough belt left.

[@officerfarvaah]

This is the knot I ALWAYS use because your belt NEVER comes off/loose.

[@thatcookiesguy]

THANKS U SO MUCH BRO

[@Reddragondiaries]

I think it's common in both judo and karate. I just called it the SeoulTee method for fun. Some actually loop both ends through the belt, but I just do the one.

[@MongPhu]

Awesome thanks for sharing. Very well done.

[@jasperkramer5693]

Verry nice!! I question my self where can you buy such kind of belt? Wich brand is t?

[@nidgeontour257]

2nd one is the best. No crossover.

[@tricepsish]

the ends of my belt always flop down, and they don't stay up looking neat and crisp... is that bcs my belt is too long, or the material is floppy?

[@pinkyrican]

Thank you for this, option 3 is working great for me now

[@koloheboy88]

Music made me sleepy, but otherwise a great video! Can't wait to try it! :)

[@ocarey2]

I don't know what i'm doing wrong but no matter what method i use to tie my belt it still comes undone

[@Alex861697]

Owen Carey mine too

[@misa7917]

Thank you very useful; greetings from México !!!!

[@Firstflood1]

Great video. I will be sure to try the SoeulTee method for my next class.

[@TypeErrorDev]

Robert Moffat i think im going to start using the soeultee style from now on..

[@bjjthaiboxing]

Why didn't you tread the other end of the belt, in-between as well? (Referring to the 3 technique)

[@xander8853]

Thank you! Great Video.

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thanks Xander Ramos !

[@thewardeclarer229]

VERY GOOOOD

[@SupraJin]

so.. it only works for judo or jiu jitsu belts? what about karate, or taekwondo belts?

[@TheKhergit]

I noticed that a few people have knots that are flat tied, you know how they do them?

[@mrbox5526]

Great .... I for myself like the Basic "traditional" version :D ....... Great Video

[@judoboy1252]

On the second one get a big bit left and a we bit left

[@bunchabugz17]

i bought a gi yesterday from my judo instructor yesturday, i take classes in achool, i am 6 foot 1, he sold me one for my height but it was a bit baggy, he suggested i wash in hot and dry in hot so i did and it fits better but still is rather baggy. it has 6/200 on the tag. i weigh about 150. does the 200 mean its for a thicker person?

[@rabbishekelshilling8555]

Very helpful, when i went to my first class, most of the classmates just made a simple knot on their belts and this made made me look like a pro :)

[@eugeniofernandez8101]

Thank you. That last one was beautiful.

[@arnoultti5537]

Thank you so much man! I had a bit of trouble remembering the 1st method and now i will remember it properly! So big credits to you! ;)

[@lisaboscarino]

Gracias! Lo usaré con mis estudiantes de judo. Ya conocía las primeras dos formas para amarrar el cinturón, pero el tercero no lo sabía. Me parece muy buena opción. Lo practicaré!

[@Reddragondiaries]

:)

[@thiagomatengo]

Excelent post, mate!!

[@Reddragondiaries]

[@fondeur]

Really helped alot. Thanks for taking your time to teach us.

[@throwdown2550]

[@aprilamaya1051]

Help me I'm sinking in cyber shit

[@aprilamaya1051]

Love u

[@shunsukeakagi]

Crossing at your back is or at least was very bad when I learned how to tie obi 35 years ago.

[@Jxmima]

2:29 for the sencond one

[@80CRC]

I finally get it thank you so much 👍🏼OSS!

[@Reddragondiaries]

I wouldn't wash or dry it that way. Wash it cold and air dry it. At your height, the sleeves will get too short if you dry it. After about 6 months of using it, then you can dry it from time to time. My uniforms fit baggy too.

[@PrayDark]

Well I have to loop both ends because I got my first dan and in my Karate dojo you have to do it like that.

[@Jafferybrain]

very nice

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thanks brother. The orange shirt says "Kook Sa Kwon Yudo Jang (judo school)"

[@Set2Wumbo]

I absolutely love using the 'Seoultee' method for tying my belt! Did you come up with that one yourself?!

[@Reddragondiaries]

No not at all. Just having some fun

[@plzstop1233]

2:30

[@jakebarnes1619]

The last one I used at the Australian nationals

[@Reddragondiaries]

Actually, the third knot ends up looking flat. At least a little flatter than the others. That may be what they're doing.

[@hunterMH1]

thanks for this video i forgot how to tie my gi

[@carsonschamahorn4046]

Thanks i used the last one

[@Kalernor]

Does that 3rd method really never get untied during practice? If so I have to try that myself!

[@Reddragondiaries]

I'm sure it does somehow. It just never happened to me when I tied it that way. I typically use the second method though

[@JiuJitus1210]

SeoulTee I use the third method when I train and the second method in tournaments. The only reason I have to retie my belt when I tie it using the third method is that the initial tie wasn't tight enough. Great video.

[@Kalernor]

Paul Cartee why dont u use the third method in tournaments as well, since it normally doesn't untie?

[@JiuJitus1210]

I don't use the third method in tournaments because having my belt not untie gives my opponents an advantage. If their belt falls off, I can't use it. If my belt stays on, they can use it against me. I don't use the third method in tournaments because I don't want to give my opponent an advantage.

[@Kalernor]

but according to the rules when your belt unties the referee signals you to tie it again..or am I wrong?

[@stereophonic77]

Thanks! I'm checking out the Aikido dojo tomorrow.

[@NovaWarrior77]

Thanks my dude! judo promotion coming up!

[@LaVidaJudoka]

The SEOULTEE method is also the droman30 method.

[@Reddragondiaries]

It's the only method!

[@LeonardoLemosBass]

Thanks a lot bro!

[@BeaFullbuster]

Oh so good! I'm a new white belt that has to tie her belt like a thousand times during the practice lol this afternoon I'll try the last one!

[@lukegray7423]

Sorry, but you did the first one wrong. Your right hand guides the belt under the other wrapping. It doesn't cross over. It should end up just like the last two you tied. A new belt tied like that could hurt your back if you fall wrong, and is uncomfortable. Why hasn't anybody noticed this?

[@Sutibun]

Thank you so much! You tea ch me how to tie my Judo belt!

[@sankari6114]

What belt are you at? Looking for fellow white belts.

[@aaandrew8987]

I finally do the no crossover method, THANKS!!!

[@Reddragondiaries]

+AAA Destroyer awesome!

[@Hotpepper671]

what is the title of song?

[@victoor100xd2]

es modo 2 es el mejor gracias muchas gracias 👌👌👌😎😲🐱‍👤🐱‍👤😄

[@Reddragondiaries]

I think it's the same for karate. Most likely TKD as well

[@ianhenderson514]

the first step is traditional for TKD

[@ahumphrey4254]

thanks alot! learned how to tie my belt for bjj before ive gone to my first class!

[@1banryukyu]

Red Dragon Diaries Sir The style of 武道 you train in is 国士館 (the country warrrior training hall)? I can only read the 漢字(hanja) on your 道着. On your 帯 it looks like the style is 山流柔道柔術？Thank you for sharing.

[@stephenwood1187]

Thanks this helped a ton!

[@tabac4002]

Boss

[@stereophonic77]

hey SeoulTee, there's an aikido dojo near my home. what are your thoughts on aikido? is it legit training for self defense?

[@Reddragondiaries]

I think aikido is great stuff. I wish I had done it at some point along the way. I'm sure there are some aspects about aikido that would transition well into self-defence. Much police training is centered around alot of the takedown and locking techniques of aikido for subduing someone. Much of it is theoretical and there isn't a real free sparring venue in aikido, but it's still great.

[@Nyel666]

Great! Thaks!!

[@manuelruniahue5233]

Thank you very much :)

[@gunnargrisl4188]

Most important - tie the belt in your kitchen! 🙂

[@madfella1]

Nice...thank you!

[@Jords1908]

awsome video mate. what belt is that ?

[@MrRobertGameplays]

Thanks dude alot! :)

[@Reddragondiaries]

That's all true. Koreans pronunciation of the "J" in this case is with a "Y" sound. I learned this as I heard pronunciations and saw spellings of several words in the same situation.

[@tabac4002]

Miau te miaun miau

[@macmacdonald4996]

Very well done and Very useful for ALL styles that utilize an obi....didnt know the last one....THANKS!

[@Triangulove]

Is the belt suppose to be perfectly layered in the back? Because for some reason I cannot get it perfectly layered, one layer always comes out despite how hard I pull when tying.

[@macinz1230]

Hey man thanks for the vid, Ill use that 3rd method, Cheers

[@knuccklespinkwolffur8886]

that how ive tied my band the first way

[@Reddragondiaries]

You're welcome. I use the last knot myself when I'm practicing judo

[@Reddragondiaries]

For my belt it makes it a bit too bulky. I find doing one side still locks it up

[@NarutoUzumakinuzumaki533]

thank you sensei

[@Reddragondiaries]

it should be yes. before you start the knot, make sure it's layered correctly. Just takes a little practice.

[@Reddragondiaries]

Thanks. I'm in a different one now with my new school.

[@neilthewheelio]

nice one brother.
