I wont lie, stripe testing is a stressful part of Taekwondo, but it's the kind of good stress that pushes you to work harder. Every aspect of Taekwondo, pushes you to work harder.The great part of stripe testing is if you don't pass you know where you stand, where you need to work harder, and what things you need to learn. When you pass stripe testing, you get this feeling in the pit of your stomach, the feeling of relief, and success! I personally love this feeling. :) Study hard, and maybe you can experience the feeling I love so much!
