John Peterson
Student of the Month December, 2017
It is quite an honor to be chosen as student of the month considering the mastery and dedication of so many other students at Chosun. I have enjoyed the opportunity over the last couple of days to reflect on my training and the many things I gain from it.
As far as the physical training goes, I most enjoy the poomsae with Palgwe Oh Jang being my favorite. Where I have gotten the most bang for my buck in day to day life has been in practicing listening and breathing. The more I can clear the chatter out of my mind the better I can pay attention to those around me.
As far as other hobbies go, I most enjoy reading and puttering around the yard. As a militant introvert (and by necessity) I also enjoy sitting in my car for hours at a time going to and from Maryland.
Thank you for the opportunity to share a little about myself.
