130

So far so good this week. Classes have gone pretty well for me. Monday I got a compliment on my snap something that takes a lot of time and effort.  I was on a roll and it felt good. No wrestling yet for me as I'm not at 100% but that is ok.  Two more Blue Stripes is definitely a possibility!

Yesterday we had someone come in to just watch. As soon as I saw the focus mitts come out I knew what was up.  I was on deck to show what I can do.  Just hope that he comes back and takes class.  

Over the years I have seen a number of students to be 'on deck' and show prospective students/parent/etc what they can do.  It was always impressive to watch. I was really proud when it was my first karate student. He was good and I know I helped him get there.  Now recently I'm the 'on deck' student.  I know I had to earn this right.. There is no slack.  Its pretty nice to be in that spot, I am happy to be here.  I'm not as proud as I was for my student but still proud.

Today I'll be teaching again, and hope it goes more like last week. Smooth, everyone trying hard and listening.
