Ok so in tae kwon do when you get black belt, in order to get to 2nd degree, you have to go through a few mid terms instead of testing for the next belt right away

Well im a black belt in tae kwon do and i mid termed yesterday

I had to perform
My black belt form (81 continuous moves)

The first five colour belt forms (white,Orange,Yellow,Camoflague,green)

I had to break three boards continuously (A front kick, side kick, and round kick)

And free sparring (sparring with a friend for 5 minutes straight)



After i was done the judges said i got 260 points, the normal is 200, so i did really good!

Ya so im about halfway to 2nd degree.

Discuss,comment, do you do tae kwon do?


BTW i have been in tae kwon do for about more than 2 years

Wow, gj.
My friend does TKD and he's almost blackbelt, hes doing his midterms around next month.
Were you worn out after this? Sounds really long to me.

Yeah, bout 1 hour long while i was doing it, bout 3 hours watching all color belts test for their belt

Im still sore XD

But it was fun.

:o, I do karate, and my black belt test was about an hour and a half ;)

Sounds fun, I didn't get to break any boards at my black belt test D:

Trust me breaking boards isnt the best thing ever.

I have a huge scar on my ankle.... Damn sidekick

I'm about to test for my second degree. That black belt for is easy, I hate how you don't chamber all the way though. During our mid-terms we have to do 1-on-5 person sparring.

What's your favorite thing about Taekwondo? Mine is sparring, and the ground fighting. (Even though that isn't really Taekwondo).

Yep. It's pretty fun.

*gasp*
I'm a 20fiveth Degree Black Belt.
Yeah, I know what you're thinking.
I'm amazing.
*yawns and wakes up*
Oh wtf...
I'm actually a blue belt.
D:
I quit Karate when I was 7 years old.

Probably board breaking


Sissy

Good job. I never really had the patience for martial arts when i did it.

I took karate for 3 years and i reached to 3rd degree in my age group.
Quit 2 years ago because i changed age group and they reset my belt to black and i got into soccer.
