I held my rank for years, then I took an over'ly long break and came back a couple of years ago.

(The break was over 15 years...like I say over'ly long)

I was accepted into this new club and asked to regrade with them as I had been away so long.

I was very happy about this, it satisfied my sense of respect for others, seeing as I had been away so long I felt it important to prove myself to them and earn the rank.

The other day I did regrade, and passed!

New Kyokushin 1st kyu brown belt now wrapped around my middle!

I'm 1B Kyu brown belt in shotokan karate. Which means, I have much work to do before I reach Shodan.

Good luck and all the best to you on your journey, OP.

The road may seem long, but shortcuts only get us into trouble.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

To search for the old is to understand the new.

The old, the new, this is a matter of time.

In all things man must have a clear mind.

Shureido, Black, size 6, 100% cotton. Comfortable, durable and easy to wash. Fading a bit though and fraying at the edges.
