Description I used to take Tae Kwon Do classes...found out there's another place teaching and decided to see if I still loved it.
I DO

I miss it SO BAD
I'm going to join officially after a few more lessons to figure out where I'll be placed.

The highest ranking student was this adorable 9 year old blonde girl. She was a rank away from being black belt. I only made it to blue-to-red.

My face was incredibly sweaty by the end. It was sooo grooossss.

OH HEY yes I DO, IN FACT, draw comics!
Just so y'all know.

Nothing better than going back to practice after a long absence

ItΒ΄s a bit depressing to see that people you saw as your juniors now have the same grade or higher than yours

What TKD style do you practice?

WTF. My first school was ITF. I wasn't in it long enough to really recognize the difference.

Cute instructors ruin everything.

Ever had a cute dance instructor? It's the worst. Because you CAN'T HAVE THEM

Ahahaha, beware the tiny experts. It's amusing watching a grown man be beaten by a 12 year old black belt (that was me) after saying it's impossible. Jiu-jitsu, btw. At my school, the highest-ranking students are two 4th degree black belts around 21 years old. Yes, I just rambled on and on, but it's cool to find another martial artist on here.

I know how this is, I took Karate/ Tae Kwon Do classes for 8 and a half years, earned my black belt and haven't gone back since. Trying to get back in to shape and practice, and man it was tough But it's well worth it. Great stuff to learn

Ugh sticking to the bottom of the feet is the worst. 13 years of martial arts and that's STILL the thing that bugs me the most.

oh come, what the teacher said was to make you continue to go to class(and therefore pay for it)

i used to take tae kwon do too...i hated it...

angelaART In reply to Kibate [2010-08-09 01:27:46 +0000 UTC]

Well of course they wanted me to pay for it. It's their living; how they make money; their business.

I'm sorry that you hated it, but I love it, and understand that it's not for everyone.

Glad to hear you might be joining back up! I'm a Second Degree Black Belt in GA, with United Karate Studios. It rocked my world and changed my life, and I'm always happy to hear when someone decides to make the journey! Good luck, and great comic.

Ah, this brings back memories of when I took karate in junior high! Adorable instructor and pint-sized expert included!
