My favorite is still my Shodan test. During the kata test I was to perform a Nunchaku kata. The kata was simple enough, but I hated it (and so did my Sensei, which is why I probably didn't think it was as important to master). So I get through the first part and realize that I have absolutely no idea what is supposed to come next. So I improvised and finished up my kata.

On the testing board there were a few visiting masters who complimented me on how good the kata looked and that they could see no fault in it, but they wanted to know what my instructor thought. My instructor furrowed his brow and simply asked "John, could you do that again?" I smiled and said "No sir, not if my life depended on it." He then related to the other members of the testing board that he wasn't sure what kata I had performed but that it certainly wasn't the one that he taught me. I ended up getting compliments on how well I did masking that fact and making something up off the cuff but I was super nervous about it in the moment.

For our BB tests, stopping during a kata is an automatic fail, so we were always told that if we lost our way to make something up and get back to center. Better to get a bad grade on one kata then to botch the whole test.

Nice recovery.

Was participating in a family class with my four-year-old son last week. They separate into level/size groups for various parts of the class, but for the warm ups we work with our family member. Often it's two siblings, but there are some parent and child too. My little guy was the littlest by far the other day. We do a lot of exercises where one of the two family members will have to do whatever the exercise is (say, run to the end, jumping jacks, push ups, run back, high five and the other person goes). One of the exercises they had us do was for one of the family members to go in horse stance, the other crawl under their legs, stand up in front and go in horse stance for the other person to go. They had a good laugh at me attempting to crawl underneath my son's legs, lol. One of the black belts came over and picked him up when it was my turn to crawl, and I went under both. Good times. Lots of laughs, along with hard work, at my dojo as well. :)

Same with my school. Part of the test was that we kept a level head under pressure. If we forgot something then just keep going.

Running class one Saturday, I was absolutely ragged from a harsh week at work plus baby keeping us up during the night. Well, during class this particular Saturday, I attempted to demonstrate a bunkai/oyo on my uke and got blasted in the face... :lol:

We all had a good laugh about it... :) I told them, "No, that's how you don't do it..." They all understood; most had even commented on how exhausted I looked before class started...
