I am a Yellow Belt

I am now a yellow belt in Taekwondo.  We had our promotion test a week ago and I passed!  It required some jumping jacks, the splits (best you can do), crunches, squats, a little Korean terminology, pumse (poom-say), kicking, one-step sparring, and breaking boards.  The other foreign teachers were there to cheer us on and be our witnesses.  I broke two boards at once with my fist which was pretty cool. Jim got to hold the board for me.  Jim also got to break a board by kicking it.  We had a good time, but we were also nervous.  Enjoy the pics!
