Yesterday was my 4th dan exam in iaido, after a full day of training, matches and excruciatingly waiting for the exam. My mind went *pop* at the start. When it popped back I could not remember even if I did perform the correct kata.
I did not pass. I do remember is my cuts made a noise, which makes me happy I surpassed that level of myself, I will continue to train more, the next time my mind goes *pop* I will be a step further to show proper iai.
