Aiden Martinez’s black belt essay

This is my first Dan black belt essay. I joined Taekwondo two years ago when I was fifteen years old because I wanted to learn how to do martial arts and become a black belt. And now I am seventeen years old and I still love Taekwondo even though it is hard sometimes it is still a lot of fun. Taekwondo not only has helped me get stronger physically but mentally too. It has taught me discipline, respect and responsibility. I remember my first day on August 9, 2023. I was nervous and didn’t know what to do, I couldn’t even kick properly. I’m still not perfect today, but I’ve gotten so much better. I have even won first place at multiple competitions in forms, weapons and my favorite sparring. I remember I was a yellow belt at my first competition and I won first place in both forms and sparring. I remember I was so nervous going into my first competition but even so I did my best and won. I have been to a total of 5 competitions winning 12 first place trophies and medals and 1 second place trophy. I love helping and teaching the peewee class because I can help them get better at taekwondo. Also I have met and made many friends here who have helped me get to this point and who have pushed me to get better. I thank God and Jesus for getting me here. I would like to thank my parents for helping me get this far.  And I would like to thank all the masters and instructors who helped me get to this point. First I would like to thank Master Park for helping me get here and teaching me almost everything I know about Taekwondo. Thank you Master Jose for always making us practice the basics. Next I would like to thank Master Burney for always helping me out when I was struggling. I would also like to thank Mrs. Kathy for helping me with my forms and weapons. And I am also thanking Master Lee for helping me get better at sparring. And thank you Ms. Becky for helping me practice my form at competition and helping me get first place. And thank you Master Olie for helping me with my kicks, forms and sparring. And thank you Master Park for giving me the opportunity to take the first Dan black belt test.
