Lynne
Master of Arts
on Saturday and my daughter passed her 4th gup test.
I had to break a board with the back kick. The first time, I missed the board because it was too high. So, I lowered it and wham. It was weird to me. I felt the board break and I heard the board break, but I never saw it happen. I did look over my shoulder to aim.
My daughter had to break her board with a jump front kick. She did great, got it the first time. And she broke it with the ball of her foot, not the toes. Some poor person recently broke a board with their toes doing that kick. Ouch.
I'm really excited. I get to learn Pyung Ahn Sam Dan and, of course, new Ho Sin Sool and Il Soo Sik Deh Ryun as well as new hand strikes and kicks.
When Master R was tying my new green belt on me, he told me that things were going to become more difficult with spins and balance. I do have rotten flat fleet. I hope I can compensate.
