Finally! Into a new year!
I've been given permission by my doctor to work more extensively on my core to help my back.
So, since my husband is a 2nd-degre black belt, and my teen-aged boys are 6 months shy of their black belts, martial arts with the family was the clear choice.
Talk about "kicking" off the new year in the right direction!
I trained during the month of December to understand some of the skills necessary, and after private lessons with a karate Master and GrandMaster, I'm happy to report that I achieved the first rank, White Belt, in Tang Soo Do/Moo Duk Kwan - Korean style Karate. In a nutshell: I love it.
This week will be my first week I get to "take the dojo floor" and line drill with the rest of the class. I'm nervous and excited all at the same time.
I've come a long way, baby! :)
