How To Tie Your Karate Obi (belt)

Step 1: Start by holding one end tail of your belt at your "belly button" a few inches longer than the
length you want the belt to be when it is tied. Wrap the other end clockwise around your waist.

 

Step 2: Continue to wrap the belt around your waist a second time.

Step 3: Tuck the end of the belt under both layers and bring it upward.

Step 4: Bring the top tail down over the bottom tail (right over left).

Step 5: Bring the top tail up through the middle tying a "square" knot.

Step 6: Pull both tails down to tighten knot. Both ends should be the same length.
