How do i make the us taekwondo olympic team?

I just started Taekwondo. I am 3 stripes away from yellow belt. What should I do know so that I can be on the taekwondo olympic team? I do train every day. Should I talk to my Instructor and get some info on the Olympic team to show to my instructor?

What do the stripes on the belts mean in taekwondo and how do I tie the belt?

My son has just begun taekwondo and I notice other kids have stripes wrapped around the ends of their belts that they get from something called “stripe testing”. Is this common? Another question I have is: how do I tie the knot on his belt? It always looks goofy the way I do it compared to how the instructors have theirs tied.

White belt for TaeKwonDo?— stripes? (read more)?

Okay, just started TaeKwonDo, our instructor doesn’t tell us squat. How many of those “tips” are there to advance to yellow. What is the (I believe) 16-step form called? (Where you keep your fist close to your chest, parallel to the ground) Are we suppose to get a book or anything? How long should the process from white to yellow take?
What is the flip over the elevated rectangle mat called. Is there something called horsecrab????
Ugh, it is moving so fast.
Thank you so much people!
