I started maybe 4 years ago in Tae Kwon Do, and got all the way to Brown Belt, and then I moved back home to Tennessee. Not finding a suitable TKD Dojang, I started all over again in Isshinryu Karate and Jujutsu. I am currently a Blue Belt in Isshinryu, and should be testing soon for my green belt in jujutsu…..
But, I have also realized the the Martial Arts is not just about getting to Black Belt, but a lifelong journey of self improvement and self discipline…

I guess it isn’t really fair to post this here now, since I am only 25 cranes short of my goal. My plan is to have them all folded and “strung” by this weekend, since my main goals for doing this project were:
1.)To have it done in 2008 (New Year’s Resolution) and,
2.) To present them as a gift to my main Martial Arts instructor, since, according to the legend, you get a wish for folding 1000 Cranes, and all I can think to wish for is peace and prosperity fo my Dojo…..
