February 18, 200719 yr I finally got a chance to test for brown belt. The test was put off because of some extra work i needed.I was grateful that my instructors pointed off some things in technique that needed improvement.Well i arrived at the dojo @ 12:30.The actual test began at 1:00 It was 4:45 p.m. when it was finally over.I was told by Master Tom Hook that you have earned this rank, because I don't just give them out.I was nervous doing katas, but totally relaxed with the sparring full speed with no pads.my son asked me last night " dad what if you don't pass"I replied " I will right back at class Monday night grinning kicking and punching"I feel that my training has really just beganthanks for all the tips, and insight you guys offerOSU brown belt kyokushinkia
February 18, 200719 yr Awesome Job!!! You should be so proud. I am 1st brown testing for black in April. Congrats.Angela "All your life you are told the things you cannot do. They will say you're not good enough, strong enough or talented enough; you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. ………..…. “AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES."Nike Ad.
February 18, 200719 yr That is great. You must feel so proud. Doesn't it feel great to get positive remarks from an instructor. Many times it is worth more than the actual rank. A great martial artist is one who is humble and respectful of others.
