viskous Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 got to test last night, i wasnt even planning on testing i was just doing jump kicks with the rest of the class and my intructor approached me about it so i thought i might aswell, i was worried cause i didnt know all of the terminology or stance/stance names by heart yet but he was rather leanient towards me and the other white belt, at first i thought he was too leanient, i mean i want to really earn my belts but when he tested the higher ranks he was progressively harder on them, like the blue belts and red stripes had to mix different forms on command and repeat the advanced forms over and over, so that alleviated my fear that the school was too slack a bit, though i will still be slightly dissapointed if the other white belt goes straight to yellow belt, i dont want to seem judgmentel but he knew very little out of the very little we were expected to know. But thats not important im just feeling good about the whole thing, the incouragment ive been getting lately is extrememly satisfyinganyways sorry for babbling just thought i'd share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enviroman Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 thanks everybody,I passed.I know because I saw Senseis grading sheet.The only thing I wish I would of done was kiai louder on some things and hurried up with others.Does Goju really stress loud "kiais?" Kind of odd, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
