This weekend was jam packed...but fun. I'm finding out that I have a lot of 'zeros' showing up on my chart. However, I'm going to continue most of them.

Saturday began normal with my blackbelt class and Junior Tigers, but then I got to meet Master Melegrito during his seminar. That was a quick 2 hour class full of information!

My nap afterwards was well deserved and sooooo satisfying.

Then today I join the blackbelts at the park and worked on some things I needed help with. I need a lot of help. I'm learning an entire curriculum in a year. No easy task.

Ok, to much chocolate icecream. Sugar overload. Night all.

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.
