Hey Scholars!!
It was a LONG morning of testing!
I am happy to report that I DID IT!
I made recommended black belt today!!!!!!!!
Its been a long road and I have some serious study and practice ahead of me, but I am looking forward and aiming high!
The next test I take will be for my 1st Dan Black Belt! Wow, just thinking about it!
I have a minimum of 6 months to prepare to perfection in order to earn my belt! Today’s test encouraged me! I think I can do it come June ( it’s not unusual at all to need more than the minimal amount of time)! I will for sure keep you posted!! Thanks for your prayers and support!
Enjoy these pics of SOME of the action! Of course that is me with the turquoise bandana:)
Light, Love and Sidekicks,

Congratulations Shona,
It may have been many years ago, but I remember the day I passed my black belt like it was yesterday, one of the best days of my life, a memory I will never forget, I hope it will be the same for you too.
The training now really starts, they say black belt is really the beginning and I am a firm believer in that, keep going, still lots to aim for an achieve.

Hey Wayne! I didn’t know you were a Martial Artist! How cool! I see you TEACH KARATE! I am super impressed and excited about that! You are right! When I first started, I thought I would have reached the apex at black belt and I am totally amazed at how it means I am really Just beginning! But interestingly, I am glad about that! I look forward to improving and learning more! My daughter tests for her 1st degree in Spring (March”ish”) and me in summer (hopefully:/ Thanks for the comment Wayne!! Light and Love, Shona
