Congratulations to all who were there, all who tested, and all who stuck their necks out to judge!We had students from Pekin, Mapleton, and Kickapoo dojos, all together to share a very challenging and fun day.
We had no less than 37 enthusiastic students from ages 8 to 58, men , women , and children, all testing, and all nervous.
They all demonstrated progress and courage, facing the challenges of the test.
And extremely important, they reflected the high quality of teaching , mentoring, and leadership of their instructors, assistant instructors, and their sempai (seniors)!!!
