I just got confirmation that testing will take place in March. Don't have an exact date yet, but do know that it will be happening. I'm kinda nervous, even now, just getting the confirmation that it will happen soon. I've been ready for a while now, according to my instructor, and he thinks I'll do fine. Me of course, am one bundle of nerves, which should settle by the time the day gets here.
This is a big step for me, its the farthest I've gotten in my training in any style. I achieved 6th Kyu (purple) in Shotokan, but this is 4th Gup in TKD.
A lot of feelings run through me, proud to have gotten so far, some fear about doing well on the test, which, given my instructor, is going to cover EVERYTHING we've learned. I've been warned that he's gonna make us work for it. So, Time to really review it all....7 forms, 9 self defense drills with variations, about 12-15 one step routines, all the "basic and advanced techniques, plus whatever else they think of, probably including sparring too. Ordinary tests are single board breaks, I think we're either going to get speed breaks, multiple breaks or some of both.
As soon as I've a date, I'll pass it along.
