Gentlemen,

I know we are having fun. Yet, could we stay on topic?

Thank You

I'd answer you, but we'd get "time out" for having fun, so back on topic.

My rank is irrevocable, and that's all you pugs need to know!
 
Well, back to the question at hand. Me, I'm just a simple and humble 1st dan Kukkiwon BB. I feel I'm still at the bottom of the MA ladder with so much more left to learn. Damn!?! Just when I think that I'm doing something the right way, I'm corrected by my master instructor for not doing it well enough... :shrug:

As the sabumnims on our testing board said after we completed our test for 1st dan BLACK, "If we determine that you passed this test all it means is that you've learned the basic TKD techniques and you've simply just laid the foundation, as if you were building a house. From here on you will be ready to begin your serious study of our martial art". :asian:
 
I vote for advanced rank

Though I am afraid to say it out loud for fear that someone will figure I don't need to learn (or train) anymore
So I am a 5th degree under GM Don Jordan
3rd degree Kosho Kempo
1st degree kaJuKenpo
trained in Kung Fu, Judo, Shorin Ryu and tKD up to brown ranges

I have a certificate and a belt that says First Dan. But that was 11 years ago and upon relfection doesn't feel right. Studyng a new style and looking forward to testing for intermediate in a few months.

Learning more now....
 
Oh great, now all the kids on the forum are going to have nightmares about people turning into belts, thatnks a lot :p

I used to wear one, but never again if I have anything to say about it :D
 
I am a white belt with many shades of gray.................
