Rateh Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Well today I took the second of three black belt pretestings that must be passed before the "big test" in September (a two day event)This test was over the second "half" of the color belt portion of the system (they say half, but its really more like the second two thirds)The test was 3 hours and covered 6th kup through 1st kup testing requirementsThis included4 basic combinations per rank2 kicking combinations per rank4 sparring combinations per rank1 form per ranka bo staff formand partner work (one steps, two steps, 25 escapes from grabs, knife defense, basic stick work, 5 judo throws, and some free style self defense)I am very sore...but I only have to pass one more pretest (over all black belt requirements up to the rank I am testing for)I'm very happy about passing the test, and am looking forward to testing in September.YAY...just had to share it with someone Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. - Nido Qubein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesteph Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Good luck, Rateh. You're two-thirds through and it's the last lap coming up.Isn't it funny how people will say, "For the first half, you do this, then the second half, that, and for the last half . . ." ~ JoeVee Arnis Jitsu/JuJitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
