On Saturday, March 10th, I participated in the Ohan Brothers Gold Cup Tournament again in the Kata Division ( Black belt level) against more than 12 opponents.
I performed the Saifa Kata. At this point I have no pictures/videos of the event.
I achieved the marks of 8.5, 8.4, and 7.9
After my performance I was approached by total strangers again as they sought to shake my hand and compliment me on how much they appreciated my kata.
I had difficulty maintaining power on the material surface of the tatami as it shifted under my weight, and was "slippery" when called upon for power. I will train to learn how to do powerful kata "on ice" as I am normally used to performing on cement or wood floors.
