Two weeks ago I took my fourth test in Tang Soo Do, and now I'm a sixth-up. This means up get a belt upgrade, so today I received my brand new green belt with one stripe. It is remarkable how much progress I've made since the first few lessons. I remember back then I couldn't get my body to do anything with any kind of precision. Now my precision and technique is getting pretty good for the easy level of difficulty I'm at now. For my test I did a ridge hand through to the thick board! I feel I could actually hold my own in a fight, should I somehow end up in one.
