Benjamin joined the Juniors for Karate this summer. He had worked hard at learning all the moves for his white belt rank. In October, his teacher asked if he was ready to test for his yellow belt and he (to our surprise) said that he was ready.
The first attempt to get his red tip was not successful- Ben was sent back home to practice. He and Richard worked really hard through all the moves and sequences and went back to try again. This time he passed through and got his red tip, which enabled him to go in the next day to test for his yellow belt.
For over an hour, the kids showed their various routines and moves. Ben was successful in getting his yellow belt and we are so proud of his hard work and practice to earn it.
Now Ben is in 2 classes a week, once a week includes scrimmages wearing protective gear. He loves all the classes and we enjoy watching him progress.
