Here I Am

This is me. My name is Robyn Kichko and I am one of Sifu Brinker's student members for UBBT 7 - Live Like a Champion. I have been studying Kung Fu at Silent River Kung Fu for nearly 7 years and I am really excited to be a part of the team. I am looking forward to the many challenges and a few obstacles that I will encounter throughout the coming year. I am also looking forward to meeting other martial artists through their blogs on this site. In my blog, I will be chatting about my triumphs and my issues, my awesome family and my ever entertaining pets.

My most recent challenge has been that I can not train, physically. I had bronchitis in October and it damaged my lungs so that I can't breath very well. I am not able to do very much with becoming winded. In the past, I have gotten really frustrated with myself when I can't train because I am sick or injured. This time, all the self talk about being more patient seems to have paid off. I am excited to get back to training but I have managed to keep myself busy with written assignments, and projects that I have always wished that I had more time to do. It is amazing what you can find to do when you can't walk across a room without stopping to breath.

I am looking forward to starting the new year strong and healthy. Until next time.....

I little note to say that I saw a different look in your eyes the last couple times that you've sat in without uniform. The look was of contentment not despair. It made me feel that you were good! When your lungs are ready, you will also be; you'll be back in the saddle as you were before this set back! Keep up the good spirit!
