Yes Carol i am but i'm terrified at the same time. I keep messing up simple things that i should be able to hammer to a tea, it's nerves so i just need to concentrate on that. I am very very excited though i've been wanting this since being 8 years old, i'm 29 now so it's extra special. To be honest it's down to sensei anyway, see what he says nearer the time. The minimum to grade is 6 months and normally that would only be if the student is brilliant, well i make it 10 months by april so fingers crossed eh.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.

Hi, welcome from across the Pennines! I know how you must be feeling, it only took me 9 years to get my 1st Dan lol! Nerves are horrible, I used to dread gradings. I'm sure though that your determination will see you through to your goal though!

Welcome, it's nice to see another Shotokan nut(like myself!)
I hate to ask this bloody question again, but what's your lineage?

 

[shotokan-kez]

Ok i am a total shotokan nut lol but what do you mean by lineage? Lol

 

[Tez3]

I've just finished posting on another thread that in the UK we don't do the lineage thing and I've never been asked it before! This is the first place that I've ever seen it and to be honest I don't know what it's really about either!

Nice one Tez, thanks for that!

Nice one Tez, thanks for that!

No worries this is the thread. Not a worry for you of course lol but I like this forum as there are people my age and older on it. The original poster is still so young, lucky man lol!
