Hi Kris, and welcome to MT! :wavey:
I hope your test went well! Come on over to the Taekwondo section of the Martial Talk Forum, and let us know how it went.
There are many of us here who have similar training and experience as yours (with Chang Hon, and other Taekwondo influences). We are more than happy to share what we know, and want to hear your insights as well. Many beginners, young and old (even older than us young'uns), who might have some personal experiences parallel to yours.
You'll find a lot of info here, but don't believe everything you read - lol
Many of our members have decades of experience in Taekwondo, yet personal beliefs, organizational influences, and individual perspectives can lead to a wide range of diverse answers to questions. Many other beginners will offer their own, passionate input (sometimes based on misinformation, or a unique point of view), but take it all in, and decide for yourself.
Discussions occasionally become heated, but should never cross over into disrespect, or personal insults (you can report problems to the moderators if they don't catch it right away). MT (Martial Talk) is an outstanding forum for all Martial Artists, which far exceeds the others that I have observed on the net, and I am proud to be a member here! You'll find sections specifically about women in the Martial Art, philosophy, and Health issues (I see you are already discussing some - keep in touch as to how your surgery goes!).
I look forward to discussing your Taekwondo training in the Korean Martial Art section.

First off welcome! And as tigress said, you are still rather young.. Tigress has got to be at least.. What.. 62 now and still kicks a great deal of backside.
