Karate Kid

For years I have been trying to get Ryan to try karate. One birthday party this month and he finally said, "Mom, I think I want to try karate." We are fortunate to have a place really close to the house and we joined Kempo of Manorville for a trial two months. Long story short, he love it. He picks up the moves and positions relatively fast and attends classes 2-3x a week by choice. He went to his first class at on April 7th and on June 6th he tested for his next belt.
400 jumping jacks, 60 suicides, 25 push-ups, 10 slap outs,  3 min weight holding in a horse stance, 40 minutes of warm ups, all the proper forms, stances and not to mention a room like a sauna during the one and a half hour test....we now have a YELLOW BELT!!
First Class
Earned his first stripe
Yellow Belt!
