A Black Belt Testimonial
What Getting My Balck Belt Means to Me
By; Toby Phillips
[What getting my black belt means to me is to] It was the end of the A+ P.L.U.S. Program on September 28, 2006. My mom and I were walking out of the lobby in Plymouth Elementary School. The choice for the upcoming session of the afterschool program was yoga, which my sister was attending, and karate, the thing that most of the boys were doing. I wasn’t fond of yoga, but karate, that was a pretty cool opportunity. To actually believe in something, to actually know how to defend myself, and to learn. I knew that was the right choice at the time, and I know it was the right choice right here, right now.
‘Welcome to Morgan’s Karate Do!’ the flyers Sensei Morgan handed out said. I was pretty mad at the time. I thought I would go in to the class with a white belt, and come out with a black belt. But little did I know it took years to get a black belt, and most of the kids in my class wouldn’t even make it halfway there. I, however, was determined. I wanted to get that belt so bad, it was like I could see into the future and watch myself receiving the belt and tying it around my waist, and that was all I wanted.
Now it was a year later. I was in second grade, and it was the end of the school year. I was a brown belt. I had no stripes, and I was telling my classmates of my victory. I had done it; I had gotten a brown belt in less than two years. I completely skipped/zipped through my green belt. I was so proud of myself, and I could hardly wait to get the next belt: black.
Right now, I am a brown belt with two black stripes. I hope to get my black belt today.
What my black belt means to me is having something else incorporated in my life. Once you get your black belt, you’re always a black belt. I will always be a black belt. Getting my black belt means having Mr. Uechi inside my mind. I think getting my black belt isn’t showing off that I have a black belt. No, receiving my black belt means the world to me because I know that I’ve started something new.
