Blackbelt test was today. Found out I'm not as confident in some of my poomsaes as I thought. That's ok. I'll work on those to improve. Got my requirements done after a nap. Weather came through last night and have me a whooper of a migraine. Off to the park in the morning to contine practicing.

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.
