Archimoto Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 After many years of practicing JKD, Muay Thai, and BJJ, I've decided to try something entirely new to me: TKD!I loved being a white belt and am super proud of just earning my yellow belt!Martial Arts is truly about the journey. Enjoy and make the most of each and every day. It's easy to get bogged down with the mundane, in this brother and sisterhood of martial arts we are most fortunate to see or at least pursue our fullest potential! We are very lucky indeed! To quote the great Bob Marley: "LOVE IS MY RELIGION"

Nidan Melbourne Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Most lucky indeed. whenever i put a white belt on it reminds me to be thankful for everything that i've done over the years and look forward to learning new things
Archimoto Posted April 14, 2014 Author Posted April 14, 2014 That's a great feeling To quote the great Bob Marley: "LOVE IS MY RELIGION"
CredoTe Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 We're lucky indeed... And, yes, the "white belt" feeling is great. We just had a "white belt" class this past weekend (everyone wore their white belts, including instructors) to remind everyone what it's like to be a beginner and to always have a beginner's mind... Remember the Tii!In Life and Death, there is no tap-out...

bushido_man96 Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Yes, we are lucky. One of the great things I look forward to is being able to learn and teach something every week. Having great people around helps, too. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
