Woke up this morning to the ground being wet from rain....so much for getting a few things accomplished before heading off to camp.

I managed to get mentee session in today. We worked on our hands ( need tighter fists) and stronger arms ( not lazy arms). We also borrowed a fellow camper to work on self-defense numbers 1-3. 'A' is making progress on both her poomsae and self-defense.

Off to complete my physical requirements.

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.
