white owl Posted August 13, 2009 Author Posted August 13, 2009 Thanks Patrick. I start this weekend the first part of my testing at a inner school tournament. I am starting to freak out. My sensei's want me to do 5 rounds of sparing against the other schools Black Belts. I am feeling the PRESSURE!!

bushido_man96 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Just take it one round at a time. Good luck. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
white owl Posted August 15, 2009 Author Posted August 15, 2009 Thanks Brian and Patrick. I will try. The sparing does not bother me it is that I have to win at least one round and I do not like that kind of pressure.
white owl Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 Well I survived. I really surprised myself. I had to do 5 rounds of sparring after the tournament was done against 5 black belts. I was very tired but I found the energy some where to make it through it and I won a round and came close to a couple of others also. I was very happy.
