I have the uptmost respect for my instructor, he's damned
good. I don't want to switch schools, or be awarded rank
by anyone else. There's one problem. Sometimes, I'm eager
to learn a new technique required for the next belt, and we'll
go quite a few lessons without learning new ones. I was a
white belt for 3 months, and now I'm yellow at 4 months.
My school has belt promotion tests about every 6 weeks.
At the time of the last test, I knew 9 techs, out of 16 needed
for orange. I now know 10, and belt testing is a month away!
I need 7 techs, but elbow set, and kicking set to earn orange.
I'm not sure if it's gonna happen. As each training day passes,
my doubt that I'll be ready by April 20th increases.
I asked him if he'd mind me getting private lessons from his
black belts, and he's of the opinion that private lessons, if
you're attending class regulary isn't gonna do a whole lot for
you. I can't say one way or the other, because I haven't had
the opportunity for private lessons. One of his former students
has a school not too God awful far away. I was thinking about
hitting him up for irregular private lessons. But I don't know
that I should, and if I do .. I don't know that I should tell
my instructor.
