Hello everyone, I'm sorry I've not been on in quite awhile, my internet was just turned back on not too long ago.

Just a quick update with my martial arts, I have tested for my blue belt and recieved it, it was hard but I pushed myself past my limits and got it! =D.

How has everyone been in their training and life in general?

Welcome back! :wavey: And congratulation on the blue belt!

Life has, in general, been good - especially in the training area.

It depends on the style - but most styles have white, red/brown, and black, and most of the styles I've seen have blue belt between white and red/brown, usually closer to red/brown than white, if that makes any sense at all.

Welcome back and congrats on the promotion, training for me has been the same. I guess after forty years one just does it because it is what we do.

Halfway there, then! I've always believed that the harder half was the first half, since that's when most people who do drop out, tend to do so.

Congrats, and welcome back.
