thank chaps. This is definately where Karate starts not ends, and although its a cliche, the more i learn, I realise that the more there is is to learn

Went training again last night, proud to be in the 'black belt' area of the class, but still aching like mad across my upper body from the grading.

The gradings all a bit of a blur now!

And the aching can last for days! Well done. It just makes you want to learn more, doesnt it?! :D

Congratulations, Neil! Will you be changing your KarateForums signature, now that you've passed the test?

:)

I see that you did! It now reads:

"1st Dan Black Belt Traditional Shotokan Karate"

Congrats! Feels great, huh? Now comes the "intermediate" stuff.

I remember it like it was yesterday. I put it on, then I took it off, then I put it back on, and then I took it off...well, you get the point! It's like having a brand new car; once you get your new car home, you'll drive it to just get the newpaper at the end of the driveway.

Again, congrats!

haha welcome to the yudanshakai. I still firmly believe that all black belts are related in some way, more spiritually then anything. So welcome. And congratulations
