His Belt Is Also Black

Here it is, almost midnight on Saturday night, and I'm here telling you that my former student--and still member of the 5-1 family--Noah Spangler passed his black belt test with major flying colors. He threw people over his shoulder who outweighed him by a hundred pounds. He took them down and annihilated them. It was truly an impressive display. Every time I'd hear Shihan say, "Okay, next up..." after Noah was done, I felt so proud of him.

Today was a good day. It may be just the "good day" talking, but I think I want to throw some more of these "What I've Learned" posts up in the future. There are plenty to be had.

Anyway, congratulations, Noah! Welcome to the black belt family.
