Martial Arts Student (Purple belt)

I have been a student of Martial Arts at the Tao of Peace studio ever since I was 5 years old. I am currently working on obtaining my brown belt (3 belts away from black belt). My martial arts experience has taught me personal discipline, the value of hard work and perseverance through hardship. I have come away with humility and a determination to strive to become a better person through my actions.
