testing myself soon

[sienamystic]

Sensei says I can start prepping for my first test, which, once passed, will let me stay for the second class. Most importantly, it means that I can start weapons work. (Old sensei snorted a bit at this, every sensai having his or her Right Way To Do Things that sometimes overlap and sometimes do not. Old sensai was what you might call Weapons Positive - we started on them very early, and every other Saturday we did two hours of only weapons.)

Anyway, yay!

Cool, good luck. I sort of miss that aspect of karate--the testing, the improving. Just don't miss the sensei and dojo particularly. My sensei was Weapons Negative--I think you had to be a brown belt to start serious work on them. Or else, he saw me hit myself in the face with foam nunchucks one time too many... :p

Yeah, if you don't mesh with the teacher and the students around you, it's just not going to work. Are there other dojos around you could look into?

And...the mental image of you and the foam nunchucks made me laugh too loudly at my desk.
