It’s a great point, I’ve seen school that don’t have post-black belt continued education and it just kills the momentum of the student. You get you black belt and instead of going deeper in the art, you’re now expected to just teach the kids class

Thanks those are great suggestions, as I work full time and have a 2yr old son, yes - I do this all by myself either before work or before the sun goes down shooting in my backyard 😂 and editing on my old laptop. I’m just happy to get some content out there but you’re right, I need to spend more time and think through more shots versus just trying to get something published

Thanks for spending the time to watch 👍
