That was the exact reason I started this blog - to hopefully represent those of us who aren't the most athletic but still love it and find ourselves getting better at it. And Michelle- I see alot of people who feel they haven't really earned their belt yet. I think it is probably the modesty and work ethic that martial arts seem to instill in people.Slop -n- Goulash: Dinner of Champions!https://www.blogger.com/profile/10609954816213004079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524352043863959090.post-65666488949376434662008-08-06T20:46:00.000-05:002008-08-06T20:46:00.000-05:00Great story!

I have heard similar sentiments from others of various belt ranks. I think I felt that way after every promotion. It is what pushes me to work harder.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317845403611730397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524352043863959090.post-35105059126397023162008-08-06T16:55:00.000-05:002008-08-06T16:55:00.000-05:00Thank you for this post!

I, like you, are very unathletic and therefore had the same anxieties as you did about starting, but I finally took the plunge and signed up. Although only 4 weeks into it, I love it! Thanks for the inspiration! =)Jollibee Loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04970236015258948777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524352043863959090.post-37764970774468246422008-08-06T16:54:00.000-05:002008-08-06T16:54:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06617975010840570157noreply@blogger.com
