From when I was six to now being fourteen, I’ve competed in many tournaments, which has aided me to gain confidence and learn about competition. While I’ve had many great achievements throughout this time, I certainly wasn’t perfect the first time I tried something new because if I had, then I wouldn’t have been challenging myself enough. From the times that I hadn’t achieved my goals the first time I’d attempted to, I’ve learned to refocus and improve for next time. Being a black belt means to me that I’ve acknowledged my weaknesses and turned them into strengths.

Finally, as a young teenage girl, being a black belt means to me that I’ll be one example of the many girls that have achieved the same level of expertise that boys have.
