Master’s and Instructor’s Training and Testing

Excellent Weekend!!! It is impossible for me to briefly unpack the Learning, the Emotions, and the Sense of Family that exists at one of these training/testing seminars…not and give it the due Justice it deserves. So, I will say for the moment that I am speechless, and that you should expect a follow-up email within the next day or so, after I have adequately processed everything and can honestly put things in perspective for everyone.

In the meantime:

Congratulations for Testing:

Sa Bom Nim Mark Pagano – Yuk Dan Re-Cert # 3

Sa Bom Nim KT Pagano – Sa Dan Re-Cert #2

Kyo Sa Nim Robert Campbell – Testing for Sa Dan

Tang Soo!!!!!

 

Mastery is a Pursuit, Not a Destination

 

There are no Black Belt Techniques, Only Basic Techniques done at Black Belt Level.

 

Climb the Mountain…not so that the World can see you, but so that you can see the World.
