chiliphil1 Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Congrats! I had to take a year and half break myself a while back due to a broken ankle, I came back and after a few months I was back in the swing and passed my next grading. I made it to first dan within a year and a half of coming back, something about being gone and coming back made it more special and made me work even harder.

Karate_John Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Congratulations!, and welcome.I took a similar 6 year or so break from martial arts when I was attending college and working full time. I came back, got into the swing of things and passed for my next grading that same year (it was my purple belt too). Just keeping working hard and you will do fine Goju Ryu - ShodanMy MA Blog: http://gojublog.comPersonal Blog: http://zenerth.tumblr.com
