Artifactsnd

A purple belt is a high Taekwondo belt but it is lower than a black belt. There are 13 color belts and 10 black belts in martial arts and the purple belt is the 8th belt, it will take about two years to earn a purple belt and a lot of practice. To earn 13 color belts it will take about 4 years and to earn 10 black belts it will take about 55 years. You have to wear purple belt every time you're training Taekwondo.
  A trophy is a award that you earn in Taekwondo by sparring or showing your skills or becoming a honor student of martial arts. Trophy can be gold or silver or bronze , gold stands for 1st place , silver stands for 2nd place and bronze stands for 3rd place. I have about 6 trophies and 6 medals.
 Sparring gear is something every Taekwondo student has . Sparring gear is to protect your body from getting hurt. People in Taekwondo put sparring gear on every time they spar. Sparring gear protects head , body , shins , hands , feet  , mouth , and groins.  Without sparring gear you will get hurt really bad and could have serious injuries .
