The Journey
5ffe68b7ad610
It's Up To You
What you gain from studying martial arts is in your. control. At the Rising Star you can work your way though the belts as you are ready. You are not set to a solid schedule and testing is scheduled as your skills develop. If you feel you are not ready to move forward, you will not be forced into testing.

Stick to It
Remember, everyone excels at a different pace. You will only advance at the rate you are committed and as your skills increase. Choose this journey for you, not for the belt alone.

Techniques
Master Black Belts are skilled in diverse self-defense and combat techniques. Every Black Belt is truly only a determined White Belt. You cannot become a Black Belt without having perfected the basic techniques learned as a White Belt.
Technique is only part of becoming a Black Belt. You must develop the physical and mental strength to endure difficult scenarios. Karate can prepare you for real world challenges including developing an understanding of the proper way to handle anger.

You Cannot Do It Alone
Achieving Black Belt status requires more than focusing on yourself. You must develop your technique and support others in developing their technique. By helping others you continue to develop your technique because you become familiar with others' movements, needs, and gaining a better understanding of the receiving side.
By utilizing other resources outside the dojo you can accelerate your training. Consider joining an outside gym and build your endurance as much as possible. As you build your endurance and strength you will be able to jump higher, hit harder, and out maneuver your opponent.
