I'm going to take the Fifth on this one ...
 |
| Hanshi Tim White presents my certificate to me. |
I would like to thank Hanshi Tim White, Director of MLCAA, for promoting me to Fifth Dan effective May 15 2007. I have been slogging away at the martial arts since 1983 and have never had any idea that I could take my journey and this humble hobby of mine so far. At heart I am still a student and such an award is an exciting recognition. Now to get on with life. :-) Best regards, Colin.
In addition, I would like to thank:
- Sensei Bryan Robbins - my first TKD Instructor who is like a father to me.
- Sensei Michael Proctor - my Karate instructor, who took me in and made me earn my black belt.
- Sensei Paul Hinkley - there is a thing called 'technique' and it *can* hurt.
- GM Keith Yates - for graciously mentoring and inspiring me from afar.
- Shihan Dr Bruce Clayton - for making sense of it all and re-igniting my passion.
- Sabumnin Stuart Anslow - my brother in the arts - for sharing his love for TKD.

Be well
Reach behind you, and pat your back for me. I'm happy to see this well deserved recognition.
I'm sure that you get a special parking spot now that you are Godan.. right?
Thanks for your well-wishes. It warms the heart - and there's precious little of that in the martial arts world.

I always wondered where the "Dr" fit in there. Now I know.
Best regards,
