Wow! Can't believe its already August and almost 1/2 way through the cycle...well, 2-3 more weeks. Got my requirements done...burpies and I are NOT friends, but I'm getting better abd can do more than my pretest.

I went to assist tonight in two classes then we t to sparring. I did my first of two 2-on-1 fights tonight. I felt bad because I kept kicking g this one opponent in her bottom. Sorry. I'm short and don't kick as high as others.

Off to get a snack, shower, and bed. I have camp tomorrow and I get to open!!! Yay!

I've been in martial arts since 2002. I started in tong soo do under Head master M.K. Lee in Pineville, N.C. After I broke my left hand during a colored belt exam, I switched to Taekwondo under Head master William Grady down in Pineville, N.C. I trained at Eagle Taekwondo for 8 years, earning my 3rd Dan. When Covid the dojang did not survive. I have now been training at King Tiger , North Charlotte location, under Grand Master Evins since June of 2023. I am excited to start my Masters journey, but very nervous at the same time. I look forward to meeting the other candidates.
