just wanted to put a note up about the gradings on Saturday. It was an awesome day with a great turn out and really good quality gradings. It was an awesome experience for everyone who got to shake hands with the Chief and Kyoshi Steve, especially for the kids who have never had the opportunity before.
Grading for my black belt in two weeks. Done the hard yards on the physical side of things - should be OK if I remember to pace myself. starting to have doubts about my Seinchin kata at times. Any grading tips from you wise ol' guys ( I can say that 'cause I'm 41) Dave
