Your greatest achievement in the martial arts?


Recommended Posts

I agree with delli04 100%. Starting MA is one of THE greatest things I could have done for myself. However, my most recent achievement would have to be getting my first stripe on my new yellow belt (got the stripe last Saturday).

 

I have a whole list of great things, but won't get into them right now. :)

One of my most surprising MA moments came last night at Wing Chun when I was told by Sifu that he was promoting me to the next level. I was totally surprised and it was very unexpected. So, I'm now red sash level 2! :)

 

Contratulations aefibird! :up: :nod:

 

Not a particularly notewhorty achievement up to know. Just the enjoyment of training to get better and better and keep a good health, improving my self confidence.

Being new in the MA world (4 months), I have a few moments to share even though they're not that significant. in no particular order:

 

1. as someone said, just starting a martial art at last. it has been on my mind for more than a decade.

 

2. getting my green stripe on my white belt (9th kyu)

 

3. beating a 8th kyu student (2 years of practice though) when i had only 2 months of experience. i was much more agressive and i beat him really clearly, 3-0 in point sparring. i won first place at that internal tournament.

 

4. last but not least, all the confidence i gained and the knowledge about meditation. for example, i can get in push up position with two fingers like bruce lee, which is 70% mental imo. what is amazing is that i can do it, but im not even in the best shape of my life (yet!). this shows how mentally strong i got, and i give all the credit to MAs.

I've been proud of my first trophy, a 2nd place in kata, and of starting to teach, and of my black belt diploma which is in a nice frame.

My best achievement was training in a BJJ class while in my forties when the next oldest student was in his late twenties. The workouts were very hard and they laughed :D when I came but I did everything that they did and they stopped laughing.

 

My greatest achievement has yet to come........

What works works
