Senior Master
The tournament went well. MY sensei was there and I bronze medalled in kata for heian nidan.
I didnt do the kumite after because my senseis recommended against it. They said I only been training a little over a year and those Chito Ruy/taekwondo/whatever other MA were in that tournament were pretty rough and had little control. Sensei wants me to learn kumite within our own organization (which is very good and teaches a lot of control) I agreed with that. My senseis are my friends and I trust them. So I didnt sparr. But I have the sparring gloves and mouth piece for next year
btw My sensei came to me, hugged me and said I represent my dojo very well am a good representative. Did a nice Heian Nidan too.
After that he came to me and said I will have a grading for orange belt in two weeks. Dec. 3rd. I look forward to it and said Thank you sensei.
I am a happy panda.
