Seasoned black belt

Yes, I think it's ok to be called seasoned at the age of 72! Like we've stated time and time again: Age is just a number...

Story:
Was the longtime Burbank resident who retired seven years ago, a quitter? Truthfully, he didn't know, but he desperately wanted to prove he wasn't. It just so happened the very thing he was looking for was only a few blocks away from his home.

After everything he had tried, Steve Urbanovich, who will turn 73 in October, figured he would give martial arts a try. What could it hurt?

Taekwondo became his passion, and it was exactly what he was looking for. Seven years after taking up the sport, Urbanovich has worked his way up to a second-degree black belt.
