Back in March, I started working out at Shin's Tae Kwon Do in Dickson. Mom and Dad were thinking it would help with my coordination and possibly prevent me from having to get more physical therapy with my pending growth spurt. (Part of the hypotonia, seems every growth spurt I have to re-learn how to control my muscles.) I suppose the one thing they didn't think about was my level of fatigue. It took several weeks for me to be able to do a full work out without flopping.
I have worked hard, but to be honest I was starting to give up. I had my first belt testing on May 14th, but I didn't understand how it all worked. It was exhilarating when we got to break boards though! When we left testing, I was upset with myself because I had a lot of anxiety with the Basic 1 Form 1 and messed it up.
Mom and Master Ogburn encouraged me though and I kept going. I am glad I did now! Did you see yesterday's post? That's me with my brand new Yellow Belt! I can't wait to get my stripes and move on to green!
