Tiger Challenge


On Saturday we had our Tiger challenge tournament in Spruce Grove. I thought it all went really well! Everyone was there on time and we actually finished early. It was all very organized and flowed smoothly. I was especially excited that I got to judge creative musical forms which are always cool to watch. All competitors did really well and I was blown away by Mr.Panasiuk. A yellow belt doing a creative musical form with a three sectional staff!! And he did really well!

Other events that stood out for me were the black belt performances at the beginning as well as the sparring and San Shou. Every competitor was fully prepared and it showed.

I hope everyone else was as inspired as I was. I'm already planning what I'm going to do next year and it's given me some ideas for what I need to work on for third degree black belt.

Something I realized is that you don't have to go far for inspiration. Movies and all that stuff are good but I get more out of watching my students and classmates do their thing.

Awesome job everyone!

I was personally inspired when I saw you doing your pushups throughout the day. Your motivation and consistent effort even with a big day long event is awesome! I thought it was a great example for everyone to see!
