I had a good Wednesday afternoon & evening at the LKN dojang. I finally took my pre-test and gained a lot of requirements. The highlight of the day was making new friends in Adult Class and Kickboxing. I still look forward to KT TKD everyday.
I had another good day both at school and at Tae Kwon Do. I finished all my assignments as soon as i came back from school and got ready for Tae Kwon Do. I assist the 4.35pm class on mondays and wednesdays and also lead warm ups. I learnt my staff form with Master Knight and practiced all my self defenses and poomsae with Instructor Weeks. He made sure that he pointed out the right technique for all my self defense and poomsae. I did my Mentee session as well. Tomorrow is going to be a long day with Black Belt class till around 8.30pm..but i am excited to learn more new black belt stuff.
Had a good night in class today, my arms are really sore right now, but even though that they are sore I still came home and got my requirements done that I needed to do tonight, trying to do my best without overdoing myself.
HYPER SPARRING Ok today I did hyper but it is a Wednesday so we did sparring. Ok today I was dodging but I had my arm out. I was not moving it and I did not know that we were not supposed to dodge. I am working on it. Comment if you want.
I was nervous to teach warm ups beacuse it was my first time doing it I was pretty proud to. I had a sweaty day I did leader ship and hyper pro. I would like to learn a new self defense. I love to lead warm ups now its so fun to lead the class. I felt like I was a 3rd degree black belt teaching a class. I have a kind of a good day beacuse there was a test
I had a good day when I came home I started my homework and had a little fun.Then I did my daily requirements and then played a little bit more.
My day was good. At school this 6th grader push my friend that push me and I cut my self on the the door.

Today was a long day, I was tired and we had rec at the end of the day. I was not feeling so well and I did not do some of my exercises yesterday. I have to catch up today and try to get some sleep. I am going to go to Tae Kwon Do today and do some mentor sessions. Hopefully I will not fall behind. Other than me being tired and it being a long day, I had a good day and I am felling better.
I am soooo nervous, I am falling behind on all of my exercises because of homework!! But I have high confidence that I will catch up over the weekend! Comment if you want!
My dad gave me a bit of a pep talk on all my things on the black belt cycle and his opinion on them. Truth be told, I really needed it.
Yesterday was a bit challenging.. I did not accomplish anywhere near what I had planned. As the day went on, my pancreas began acting up.. by late afternoon I was dealing with a lot of pain. After helping teach at our satellite class I went home to try and rest and see if I could get it to ease up... it didn't and I missed Black Belt class. I really had planned to go. Today I am still struggling with it.. I must have ate something that I shouldn't have. My baby sister has been in the hospital too. I admit I have not been as focused as I should.. I've been very worried about her. Between the two of us, we have enough ailments for many.. it is crazy! Today, I met early this morning with my Mentee. She was not able to meet after class as we had planned...
Great workout this morning at CF! Honestly had a little trouble keeping my Meal Replacement Shake down during running and some of the exercises though, not sure why. I definitely got up early with plenty of time to let it settle. Friday is the last day of the 24 Day Challenge! I've certainly done better on this one than the other one I did I think 2 years ago. BIG difference this time around!
Life's wonderful journey allowed me a great evening at the North Charlotte Dojang yesterday. I was able to assist Master Knight with several classes and then take the BB Class with Master Cavasos.
I got my report card yesterday for the second quarter and I am proud that I got an "A" Honor Roll again. I had straight As again. I went to Tae Kwon Do to assist the family class and take my Weekday Black Belt Class. Master Cavazos taught us Hapkido 1 -6. I never told him that i knew up to 8 as i wanted to make sure that i get the right technique. Now i have 1-8 down and working with Instructor Weeks on my Hapkido 9 and 10.
Good night teaching at class tonight, my arms, legs, and abs are a little sore tonight from working out in my Weight Training class at school and the coming home to do more requirements, but I still pushed through all the pain to get my requirements done, yes I'm sore but still pushing on strong to get done what needs to get done.
I had a good day at school today and probably passed my multiplication test. Also I took two classes and got punched in the head.
Ok I had a slow day. I felt sluggish all day. It was not hard but it was slow. Comment. Bye.
I accidently punched Logan in the ear doing SD. I got really sad and upset about it that I locked myself in a bathroom stall then barely spoke to anyone. In my sadness and anger I did Oa-Chang and Yuk-Chang 3 times each. I felt really bad about it and I really don't think I should sparr or go against someone a lot smaller than me or a lot younger than me.
I had fun today I,went to my school and played different games in the gym. I made a fortune teller out of school paper it was awsome. I saw my friend Liyon and Jalen we had fun playing games and making stuff. I got to see my 2nd grade teacher ms Gardener I also saw my friends my that work at the school. I wait proud I did alot of good things
Today I'm better. I think I am completely healthy, or hopefully at least. I'm in the middle of doing my homework and feel like I might be falling behind on the cycle. I can't let that happen
Today was a good day in school. I confirmed today that I got straight A's again for a second quarter in a row!!!!
I am feeling better today (I did not feel good yesterday) and I am tired. I need to start doing my meditation (I have not done a lot). I hope I get my homework done fast so I can practice. I hope you guys have a good gay at school.
I am not in the best shape and don't feel good. My throught hurts and a slight headache. Yep............. that's my morning.
It was a long Monday yesterday. I had a great day at school and finished my assignments as soon as i came in. Master Evins is not here this week and yesterday Master Ritchie took our class. He is a really funny guy. He made us sweat a lot. After every other activity he would ask us to knock out 10 push ups and 10 situps. Luckily i had done only around 75 before i went to the class. I still went over my daily quota of 120 push ups and sit ups. I decided not to take Hyper Pro class yesterday. I spent time with Instructor Weeks to make sure i get my Hapkido down. I had learned Hapkido from Master Mitchelle earlier. I remembered pretty much 1 - 8. I need to practice these and make sure i learn 9 and 10. I did my mentee session as well...
Took it easy on training today. Did my forms. Worked on a new one. Got married.
I felt bad about not doing some of my requirements this weekend. But two days of PMAA training, I do believe and must say made up for them. So much that after work on Sunday I was in bed by 8:30. Note to oneself I must drive next time and set time for a walk about the town.
Enjoyed teaching the little tigers class tonight at the Belmont location, got my requirements done today and still pushing hard to do good on this spring black belt cycle.
After a long weekend, and a long day, I went to Taekwondo from 5:30-9. I was very happy and excited to go after my long day because sometimes going relieves stress and that is exactly what it did!!! Also I was very excited to try the family class and the adult class for the first time. Another reason why is because I got to (really) help in a class with other kids!
I had a good day today at school and King Tiger. today was really good because I learned that i'm an a/b honor roll student.
Ok today I had a bad day. I was being accused by people for random things that I did not do like having an attitude. Comment if you want. Bye.
What a great weekend! Congratulations to the Black Belt candidates on their Pre-Test! Most did pretty well it looked like, and if not, at least they know what they need to work on. Also, thanks to everyone who came out for the Bring A Buddy/Break A Board Goal Setting Event this past Saturday! We had a good turnout of adults AND younger folks. It was fun to see people thinking hard about what they would like to accomplish, and of course the joy on their faces when they broke through their boards!
Today I am hoping I can get to Tae Kwon Do. Hopefully I do not have a lot of homework. I wish I can go to Tae Kwon Do everyday. I didn't get all of my exercises done yesterday (it was my dads birthday) and I will try to get them done today.
Today was my father's birthday.. he would have been 72.. It is hard to believe he has been gone 27 years.. sometimes it still feels like yesterday. I miss him... I wish he could have met his grand son and see what an awesome young man he has grown into...I wish he could see us work together towards Black Belts..along with the many other grand children he has had and their accomplishments. He was a definitely a nerd for his time, I wish he could see the computer i carry in my hand that I call a cell phone... he would be a gadget nut i know... ha. i had a tough time with requirements today.. my body is really screaming for recoup time. Still nursing back spasms.. i hope it eases up SOON! Pretest finished up Sat. I think i did okay... always room for improvement.. i am going to...
The Pretest is over for the audit portion of my cycle, but my left knee is still screaming. Wasn't able to get any requirements done today but did get quite a bit done yesterday. How can the weekend be over already?
Since I have started the Spring 2015 Black Belt Cycle, me doing my requirements each day, is leaving me very sore on multiple days, but yet I am still pushing threw that soreness, to achieve my goal, and to get stronger, and to get better.
Today was a pretty good day. Started it off with my weekly meditation session with my sangha. Always a great way to start the week. Finished planning out my training schedule and am still on track. Going to be early to allow for an early start on forms practice in the AM. Feels very good to be back training. I am a little concerned in that I am training on my own and it is difficult to practice some things solo - like self defenses.
Started the weekend with Pretesting on Friday. Aside from being late due to traffic it went quite well. My scores were good but that just means I need to work even harder to maintain them; and to be at the same level with everything else. Drove to Virginia Beach to drop Jack at Naval Air Station Oceana returning home this afternoon. Managed to get in some requirements and miles through the process.
I had a good day today doing all my requirements and running around playing football for 1 mile. and i'm really thankful that i'm only 8 and a black belt.
I now how to say ball in korean gong. I love to write in korean beacuse there's words I like to write with crazy line like mother father and brother. I learned that the buteterfly is called na bi. I also learned toilet is called byeon-ghi. Apple is my favorite to spell and my name beacuse my name is the same thing over and over again and apple is in the middle section to spell.
Hello, This is Leah,Yesterday I just finished my pre test. I was nervous but I got through. Today I feel like I should not have been nervous about the pre test. I was thinking about that every time I get nervous I mess up and I get more tense. I am just happy I got through the pre test.

Today is a day after my pre testing, and my arms are very tired, it is so hard to do my push ups. But I feel very proud of myself because I finished filling in all of the information that I needed to put in (on the website), and now I know what I have left, and how many I have to do. ...
Ok yesterday was the pretest. I know that you should rest. I am. So how was your run? What was your time? You don't have to tell me. Comment if you want.
I am feeling very tired after yesterdays pre-test. I woke up an hour late today and did not feel like going for my daily run. It took me few mins to get over this feeling and start the day with my run. Me and my dad went to the gym to do our morning run and once i started running i felt very good. I did 1.68 miles today in 20 mins. I want to increase my speed to 5.2 so that i can get to 2 miles by the end of 24 mins. I need to run a better time than 9:17 which i did in my pre-test. I have a long day ahead of me today as i will have to finish all my assignments for the week and get ready for school as well. I hope to finish this by late afternoon and play some games.
I went to the North Charlotte school and did my second half of pretesting. It was really cool.
I had a horrible day beacuse I got different questions on the pre test instead of the one I been studying at home. I went to chuckynchese beacuse my brother picked it out but I still had fun and ate ice cream from dairy queen it was so good I ate it fast at chuckynchese I saw my friend from school we had fun together we played cars.

We did our Pre-Test yesterday and today. I was very nervous yesterday when we started. There was a big crowd and i did not want to embarrass myself in front of everyone. I had practiced a lot to make sure that i do perfect. I did pretty well in my poomsae and self defense. Whatever Master Evins and Master Chelley called out i did pretty well. Today in the morning we had to run a mile and i finished with a time of 9mins and 17 secs. I have been running everyday and i am very sure i will be able to beat this time again. We did our Taekug Pao Chang and i did it correct. We did all the physical requirements and i need to keep working on making sure i am becoming stronger. I did only 1.5 pull ups and my goal in the next 5 weeks is...
A few hours ago, I finished my pre testing. I was nervous but also ready confident at the same time. Once I got to Master Evins school, I started to calm down and realize that I should not be nervous about anything because I have done it a thousand times before. As a result I did good, but I could always do better.
Ok today was the pre test. How did you do? I ran under 11 min. The run was hard. I had to catch my breath a lot and that is why I got behind the pack. When I got to the end I did not see the pack. I wanted to wait for my friend but they told me to go inside. A car was leaving and I almost got hit.
Hello all. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Stan Baker and I am a rusty King Tiger student that is training for 3rd Dan. I was a student of Master Harris and Master Evins in the early 2000's before moving away from Charlotte after my 2nd Dan test. I found my way to Kansas City and am now training for 3rd Dan. After a few technical glitches I am now up and running on the website and thankful for this opportunity. Just being part of the training program again brings back many good memories of King Tiger. I look forward to meeting you all.

Tonight was pretest part one.. . I am aggrevated at myself for not maintaining focus and started my very first form as the wrong one from what was called. for me personally I dont think it ever gets easier to test at any level, i am always nervous. I know the form we were à sked to do. I Know the one I Started too and did an ok Job of Combining the two but that doesnt Count. I have to say thoùgh I loveTKD and I at every class or test I do learn something new. I wish my body would let my brain do what it wants to...that may never happen, and im never going to be an olympic competitor but i am going to keep learning and keep learning about my own limits and Keep pushing them and continue to try and live thru spirit and determination..who knows maybe...
Ok I have to hurry today is the pre test you should get down there and practice ok. comment if you want bye.
I am totally jazzed about pretest tonight. Every step we take is another step closer to our goal.

I have to do 300 or 200 push ups or sit-ups and I have to do 100 sit-ups I love to play with my brother Kaiden and Jordan when ever I count when I do my push ups and sit ups Today at my field trip we had fun we got to see where the slaves sleep and the people who own the slaves and where they cook

This is my 5th week in the Black Belt Cycle. I started off a little early during the winter break so that i can finish as many physical requirements as possible. I can feel that my body is getting stronger but i am also very tired. With my assignments at school, Kumon and Swimming to do i am really getting very tired. But i want to keep going and finish strong in this Black Belt cycle. My parents also look very tired bringing me to classes and helping me out in all my activities. I am pretty sure that after i get my 1st poom we will take a few days break and relax.
Took a moment to add all of my credits from the Inter-school tournament, Boot Camp and the Sparring Seminar. I like the affect it had on my totals! I recommend participation in school sponsored events.
A new semester started at school. i have a math class now and I'm to expect plenty of work so I'll have to use my time management skills to leave no time unused. Master Hartle is helping me out with planning classes and making sure I stay on track. I really appreciate that, thank you. :)
I had intended to do my white belt challenge this week, but thought better of it. I did not think it a fair week to do it since we did not have class on Monday and I will be in Virginia Beach this weekend. On another note, it was another beautiful day so I did a 3 mile run and my jump ropes outside. Hope everyone is doing well.
OK TODAY IS TWO DAYS AWAY FROMMMMMMMMMMM TTTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEE PRE TEST REMEBER GET THERE TO START YOUR RUN MAKE SERTAN YOUR THERE COMMENT IF YOU DARE WAHHWAHHWAAAAAAAHHHHHH.
Today was hard work beacuse I had to spar and do hyper pro. Today was also fun learning new part of hand form for me I also had fun moments seeing her get her bo cha don and sparing her. I also had fun playing with my brother Kaiden he was funny when he gave me a fake gun when I shot he would fall down and fall down like he got killed. I felt happy today so I can journal everyday like now

For this Black Belt cycle I need to run a mile and half everyday. I started running from Dec 23rd and have been running every single day. My dad also runs with me every morning. He gets up at 4.45am and then wakes me up around 5am. We both go to the gym and run in the treadmill. I started running at a speed of 3.5 the first day. Now I run at around 4.7 speed and cover 1.75 miles everyday. My dad started by doing walk in the treadmill and now he is running a 5k everyday. After the run both my dad and I sweat a lot and are very tired. It feels great to run and me and my dad have made the promise that we are going to run everyday even after the Black Belt Cycle. I want to run the 5K organized by King Tiger with...
I really dislike stressful days at work. They make me want to come home and stuff my face with all sorts of horrible, cheesy, fattening Mexican foods. I'm working on requirements now hoping it will take away my urge to binge. Dr. Bill fixed my knee up yesterday and now I'm just hoping the soreness will subside before the pre-test on Friday. I'm very concerned about the run on Saturday morning. A HUGE thanks to Master Evins for the very generous sparring class credits we received for attending Master Shane's sparring seminar! Back to requirements now because I still want a big taco.
I've been stretching and massaging my back. I still am SO disgusted that for months it has not bothered me and now that the cycle has started, electricity has shown back up in the form of shooting pains in my back. I was feeling "too good" on boot camp day. I let that "feeling good" get ahead of my good sense... so now I pay. Ha. The craziest of it all, the back is only one the many hurts I already have.... Mornings are like a check list.. feet, ouch, check, knees, ouch, check, shoulder, ouch, check, hips, ouch, check, insides, ouch check... yep all is good ! I'm still here.. and that makes me feel good! I'm trying to get my pace and make my daily requirement numbers. I'm splitting some things up trying to allow for some rest areas in different body parts. We'll see how that works out....
Totally gorgeous day! Enjoyed it with a 2.5 mile run and then did requirements in driveway with the exception of push-ups and sit-ups. I did those throughout the day.
OK TODAY MASTER EVINS HAS CHANGED THE DATE FOR THE WRITTEN/PYSICAL TESTS TO SATURDAY THESE WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET STUDING LIKE NOW COMMENT IF YOU WANT???
The amount of push ups I did for this day was: 50 The amount of sit ups I did for this day was: 50 The amount of burpees i did for this day was: 20 I have done 24 poomsaes for this day. I also have done 2 self defenses on this day. I have 1 HyperPro class w/ Marcus and boy did he push me...... and there is more to come.
The amount of pushups I did for this day was: 28 The amount of burpees I did for this day was: 5 I have much to do and a lot to catch up on.
My amount of pushups for this day was: 75 The amount of situps I did for this day was: 25 The amount of squat thrusts I did for this day was: 15
I wanted to do the White Belt Challenge early in my cycle. I asked Master Knight to give me a white belt and on Monday when i came to class in white belt most of my friends were surprised and asked why i became a white belt all of a sudden and if i had done something wrong. I help out the class before my regular class and the students were thinking i belonged to the same class. Master Evins called me to lead warm ups and told everyone not be fooled by seeing my white belt and that i was a Black Belt candidate. This entire week i was treated like a white belt. I lined up in the last row and i felt embarrassed at first but then i realized that i have worked my way up to the first row and was proud of myself. Also i attended...
Today was good. I had rowing practice today. 45 minutes of straight, nonstop rowing. I was really exhausting and it has to be my least favorite rowing workout. I did about 11K, or eleven kilometers. My dad says that roughly converts into 1km rowing per 1 mile running. But Rowing also uses the Quads, calves, arms, chest, back and abs. But also it's not as effective in flexibility and agility as running is. I'd have to talk to Master Hartle about that.
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that". Martin Luther King. On this day on which we celebrate the legacy of a great American I volunteered as a Exam Proctor for the American Culinary Federation. While this is done on a volunteer basis, I truly enjoy doing it. Had a really good workout session later in the afternoon with some folks from the Lake Norman dojang. Ran 2 miles did jump rope rounds, sparring rounds and poomsaes. Hoping to continue spreading the love and light in the world. PJL
Today I have started to run out side with family it was so cold so my running was more of a really slow walk. Comment if you want
Nothing really happened today. The day went by quickly and I didn't do stuff I wanted to do or I had to do. I should do more kicks, poomsaes and self-defenses. I have to just been feeling very lazy and tired which is bad.
I went "Dumb" for 12 hours on Dec 27th. It was a saturday and i started off early in the morning. It was extremely difficult for me to keep quiet and not talk at all. I had to put a towel around my mouth to keep reminding myself that i am not supposed to talk. I really felt bad for people who are not able to see, talk or hear. I Thank GOD for giving me all the abilities and i wish that i help such people when i grow big and start earning
correction for this test entry. this was what should have been the original entry. Day two .. official kick off of the Black Belt Cycle Spring 2015. I went to yesterdays Sparring Seminar, and have to say I am a little surprised I'm walking as well as I am today.My knees are not extremely happy with me, and my back, well it's still in attitude mode, but outside that there really was a sense of surprise this morning when I didn't need help to crawl out of bed. There is a part of me that enjoys the cycle because it adds a sense of urgency to getting a workout in my day or a good training session. I often, most days have some body part that hurts so it is easy to use that as an excuse to take a day off. I like the way I feel when I am more regular...
Today I tried doing pull ups. It did not go so well. And I ran outside today. And when I ran outside, I ran around different places .

Today I was sad beacuse my friend spencer was not playing with me and I was bored. I had fun playing with my brother Kris we played wwe real life. The hard work was when I had to spar thirty minutes and had to practice self defense poomsae and do 300ush ups 300 sit ups jump rope and do 150 burpees. I was so tired after doing all of that work so I started to lay down and start wacthing TV. Today my brother Kris had to leave and his sister KayKay or Kaylana she was fun when I was playing a cup game choose villan or hero and I won then my brother Kris and then my sister was last place.
so I go train with Master Evins on Friday go figure the jumping up and down with Master Shane Mchainie causes my plantars fatuitous to flare up again , Saturday was a tough day and night especially I got a work out in anyway but have had to wear my brace again. Man I need this foot issue to disappear.
Enjoying the day with family and friends. Live is truly good. Message from this morning's sermon from Rev Sarah Hollar @ St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Huntersville, "are we recognizing the Greatness of God in one another?" Looking forward to the week ahead! White Belt week.
Today I've been trying to make it a habit of doing requirements through-out the day. Like 25 push ups here, later 25 sit ups, ext... For school we have a 4 day break so I should get all my homework done now so that I don't have to worry about it Tuesday night.
Quite the terrific day. Started with homework; then ran 1 mile, 3 hour Sparring Seminar with Australian National Team members @ King Tiger and another 1 mile run. Then dinner with family and the movie Lone Survivor.
I went to Master Evins school and saw Master Shane. I also had the sparring seminar with Master Shane. I learned a lot more about sparring today and it was really cool.afterwards I was really sour but I still trained when I got home.and now i'm really tired.
I like the seminar today beacuse Becky and master Shane it was fun we learned how to kick at the right time to kick harder instead of soft. The best part of the day was seeing Becky do her sercet kick. I loved when we got to do different kicks at one time like roundhouse kick and outside in. At the seminar I was tired at the last part beacuse of kicking Aidan. The worth part was when I had to wear two sparing gear. I was ready to go to the seminar I was a little excited but had fun. I was so frustrated because I had to do my essay today. I got a great workout today by training with Becky and Master Shane. I think the black belt cycle will be hard I thought it would be easy but it's hard beacuse I didn't want to do my...
Great sparring seminar today! I loved everything... the kicking drills, the footwork, the instruction, my wonderful partner Ms. Pam.... but my FAVORITE part was when Master Shane said we were the most respectful school he has worked with. It made me very proud! My knees are swollen and hurting, but I'm so glad I went! Today is the first day of the max phase and my belly is full of water, supplements and Advil. Now I'm in bed... Ice on the knees.... Will probably be here until Monday. I'll lay here and study curriculum!
Wow, what a "G'Day!" Definitely a great sparring seminar today! I loved the way that Master Shane kept everything simple. It was definitely a good sweat, and I'm glad we had a great turnout. Today was the first day of the Max phase of my 24 day challenge. The number of pills/supplements went up dramatically! Not too bad, though. Had a huge amount of energy today, and it was great. Heading to Charleston tomorrow morning with my wife for the weekend. I will definitely look for some tasty fresh fish! Not fried of course...
Just came back from that Sparing seminar with the Aussies. Real cool yo. Was huffin' and puffin' at the end. Real hard workout yo. Next we stopped by to get some of those Which Witches sandwich. I picked the Tomato Avocado option. Got some swiss and peppers on the which yo. Except instead of giving' me that lettus, i got some nasty died cranberries.What's up with that yo? PS. Master Hartle(s) and Master Evan, if you do not find this funny and would like me to be serious, please let me know.
Feeling good about my training and 10 days in to the 24 day challenge. these cold mornings are a little rough on my walks.. The good thing is it is not snowing and no freezing rain. Will be happy when spring comes.
Today was a busy day! Still managed to knock out requirements, so that's great... Tomorrow is the last day of the "Cleanse" phase of my 24 Day Challenge, so I am looking forward to that. Been eating really healthy, and I can definitely feel a difference in my body! Crossfit tomorrow morning, followed by some sparring training. Also, sparring seminar on Saturday! I'm sure it will be a "good sore"...
