This young man started his TSD training in 2016 with his mom.  They were among the first students at Raven TSD.  In January, 2020, his soon-to-be step-dad joined Raven TSD, right before the COVID-19 pandemic hit in full force.  Their dedication to our art was unwavering, despite the shutdowns, classes on Zoom, and training with masks and social distance.  In October, 2020, this young man tested for first degree black belt via Zoom due to the pandemic.  Then, in April, 2023, step-son and step-dad successfully tested together for second-degree and first degree black belts, respectively.  #perseverance
