[braad]

how do u go up a belt?

remember ur routines....so boring....and sum gay sparring

no contact till ur like brown/black belt (well, no proper contact)

 

[my sharona]

I had tipped belts. So you'd get yellow with a green tip (stripe) on it...

Those dumb patterns just pissed me off. As did all those other routine movements. That's why i switched to self-defence.

 

[Pierotte]

i get to do contact, but only if your doing comp stuff, otherwise theres no real point, cept its annoying cuz u have to wear all the padding and stuff and it gets so hot!!!!

heheh i remeber a couple months ago i got kicked in the nose, i cried for a week cuz i was so scared the swelling would never go down.
but a wek later it was back to normal, luckily!!!

i used to do tae kwon do as well, a few yrs back, stopped when i was in yr5/6, i got to a yellow 2 tip. it was great. we used to do sparring with contact but we had to wear these chest pad thingos...i loved it, it was great

u must have some crap TKD instructor

 

[braad]

u must have some crap TKD instructor

oh...he was okayyyyyyy...i did it when i was still in primary...maybe he just didnt want broken children?

 

[theone123]

instructors are lean on children, the one im going to atm, is strict well disciplines and no slacking off, they treat us like soldiers :S, my grand master is the best TKD instuctor in australia and was the first to reach 8th Dan black belt in Australia.

I do TKD... had a rest for 2 yrs or so during Yr 11 and 12, but I joined the TKD club at UNSW... had some good memories though... the only fun part is the fighting and competing. I managed to kick someone in the neck during a fight.. he was lying on the ground struggling to breathe lol... all part of the sport though

 

[Pierotte]

hahah oo so vicious!! I remebr in my first comp the girl who i was fighting got her friends to come up to me and give me this whole sob story about how she was a whole year younger than me and she wasnt aloud to be kicked in the head so i shouldnt try and blah blah blah
then just before we fought she was all like hi, please dont kick me too hard, imm feeling a bit sick... she wanted me to take it easy on her so she could take advantage and beat me... fat chance
I kicked her but extra hard for being such a fucking wuss... why do a sport if u cant handle it!!??
Highlights of the fight : she fell over (tee hee), then later on started crying saying i kicked her in the head, when in reeality i didnt go anywhere NEAR her head, she was just so cut becuase she was losing sooooooo badly.

... i think i may have anger issues...

 

[tempco]

maybe.

but she deserved it, so dont feel guilty

 

[Smokey_22]

I did it for a while...took up tennis instead
