Our school is having a demonstration today. This is my first time.I'm doing one kata with 2 other girls.Will be interesting. I just have to focus and forget about the crowd. My stomach is churning already.

Just yesterday I did a self-defense demo with a friend as part of his 2nd Dan test. Stepping out on the mats I was feeling like a nervous cat. But as soon as we started moving I forgot about anyone else watching and just performed.

I think nearly all of us feel tight until we get off that first move.

My second Dan is in August.

Demos can be scary as all get out, even if you have done 'em before. However, once you get moving, they tend to move along pretty well.

Glad to hear that you are "putting the word out in the streets".....and it sounds like you had a good time!!

Peace--
