Happy snow day...or lack thereof. CMS made the call yesterday at 4:45pm to cancel school. I don't know about anyone else, but I haven't seen a single flake fall. On to more stressful things... I need a new mentee. My mentee has gone MIA and I can't keep waiting for her to show up. I'm running out of time, so I need to find someone quick. I will get out to do my rin/jog and fill in my charts asap.

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.
