A tradition that bonds us as practitioners during any Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa is the tradition of sending "Spirit" messages of support for the candidates and visitors attending the 7 Day examination and review.  The 5th Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa in Cordoba, Argentina is about to wrap up and members from around the world have sent some messages to show our support for their courage and determination to complete this "by invitation only" Moo Duk Kwan® tradition.

Una tradición que nos une como profesionales durante cualquier Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa es la tradición de enviar mensajes de "espíritu" de apoyo a los candidatos y a los visitantes que asistieron al examen y revisión de 7 dias . El quinto Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa en Córdoba, Argentina está a punto de terminar y los miembros de todo el mundo han enviado algunos mensajes para mostrar nuestro apoyo a su coraje y determinación para completar este "sólo por invitación" Moo Duk Kwan ® tradición .

1. From Roberto Bonefont, Sr.

Over the hump, as we say, it will soon be over, but you will have lifelong memories to keep you focused for many years to come, congratulations to all and remember to eat, sleep, and train... Ok, Eat and Train!!!!        Un fuerte abrazo y saludos a todos... SOO BAHK!

 

2.I hope you are well and in great spirits today.

In response to your post in Region 7, please forward to the group:

From Invictus-
"It matters not how straight the gate, how charged w punishment the scroll I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul."

Or "Go team!" works, too (easier to translate).

In Moo Duk Kwan,

3. To my SBD brothers and sisters,

You're past the half way mark of your Shim Sa! Maybe you're feeling a bit worn out, anxious about presentations yet to come, etc. Now is NOT the time to slow down. Dig deep and pull up everything you have. Leave it all there on the mats! Leave the Shim Sa Nim with their jaws slack! Leave them all WOW'ed!  You can do it! After all, you've gotten this far - and THAT took a lot of work.
Congratulations to you all on what you are about to achieve. Keep your sights set on that next rank and nail it!
Soo Bahk!

4. Good morning Sir,

I trust this message finds you in the best of health and spirits.
Further to your proposition, I would like to tell the KDJ candidates to keep their spirits high. The best is to come!
Thank you for the initiative.

week. Have a great time and enjoy the great experience the Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa
offers you!

6. Phillip Bartolacci Un saludo a todos los candidatos Ko Dan Ja, visitantes e invitados especiales.


Tengo recuerdos muy gratos de la Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa en América del Sur, y ojalá estuviera allí para compartirlo con ustedes de nuevo.

A estas alturas ya está a medio camino, y el final está a la vista. Sin embargo, a pesar de que puede haber problemas y dificultades, la recompensa siempre es más tarde y más. El Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa continuamente te recompensará con los años, y en más formas de las que te puedas imaginar.

Mis mejores deseos para el éxito continuado en este evento apreciado.

Siempre tuya en Moo Duk Kwan,
An update from Argentina... 9/19/13

Falta muy poco dia de repaso y los candidatos de Sudamerica estan muy bien organizados, especialmene a los Sa Dan candidates la semana los unio mucho.
Marcelo Tesei debera demostrar su experiencia, camar la mente y llegar el dia de manana con toda su energia .
El muro con mensajes de apoyo esta lleno y los mismos llegan de todas partes del mundo. GRACIAS realmente aca esos nos llena de orgullo sabemos que estamos escribiendo una parte de la historia de nuestra organizacion.

Ricardo Giorgi

With very few days of review and South American candidates are very well organized, especially the Sa Dan candidates who have united during the week very much.
Marcelo Tesei has demonstrated his expertise, has calmed his mind and will face tomorrow with all his energy.
The wall with messages of support is full and the same are coming from all over the world. THANK YOU, realistically each one of them fills us with pride knowing  that we are writing a part of the history of our organization.
