My first day was great! My mentor session went good, my only struggle with it was to keep Tripp focused. We worked on poomse, self defense, and kicks I think Tripp did pretty good on his kicks, he did great on his poomse only a few mistakes, and he did very good on his self defense. My workout went well, I did excellent on my run. I look forward to day 2 of black belt cycle.
