Hey everyone,
Just stopping by to share a few things going on in my martial arts world.
1. I recently held my first Hap Ki Do test for students. It was a great change of pace from the normal exams that I hold- as it comprised mainly of partner drills, armbars, and takedowns. All passed and either earned their yellow or purple belts... depending on experience.
2. Last Friday I had around 40 students test in both Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do, depending on age. Both children and adult tests were full of talent and awesomeness. :) There will also be an exam next week at New Edge Martial Arts.
3. Both Master Cindie and I are very busy preparing for our first tournament on May 8th. We are holding it at a gym in a local church... one of our adult black belts owns and operates a martial arts school there. Several other schools will be in attendance, with competitors participating in both forms and sparring events.
4. Last but not least, June 12th marks the date in which I will test for my 5th Degree Black Belt in both Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do... almost 19 years in the making! I am pretty excited about this- and hope to find time in my busy schedule to prepare myself ;) haha. I also have several students testing for their black belts- it will be a great group event!
-More later-
