Loading...Prerequisite to earning the Black Belt at OMAC (Ontario Martial Arts College) is the break of a concrete block, 4 cm width. For each dan earned.
On Nov 30, 2013 I tested for my second dan, therefore I was required to break two brick, 4cm each, stuck together.
I converted this photograph in B&W, originally taken in color by Valerie Skrepnek, cropped, enhanced and carefully retouched the highlights and the shadows to give focus to the break action, the facial expression and the posture.
For more on that day, with more photos and my essay on “The Spirit of The Martial Arts” please turn to this page off my personal blog.
