Episode 60. Second-Degree Black Belt & the North American Open
The conversation
About Daetyn Lett.
Daetyn Lett sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 60, “Second-Degree Black Belt & the North American Open”.
Daetyn is an Isshinryu karate competitor who trains at Ingram's Karate. She started at just five years old and has become a second degree black belt.
She was 16 when the episode was recorded and had just come back from her second North American Open in Las Vegas, where she won three bronze medals, including one in a 16-and-over kata division against competitors in their twenties.
Daetyn talks about remembering that everyone around you is nervous too, proving to herself she can stick with something hard, and parents who let her follow her own path.
