Tiger Stripes

After months of training, James tested and earned his tiger stripes… He is now officially a Taekwondo white belt.

The night of his test, he was so nervous & excited. Josh went through all the material with James one last time. James had it down with ease… we were just hoping he wouldn’t get stage fright!

Josh sharing his sweet moves…

The test included James doing 100 Round House kicks with both legs. 10 crunches. and some other physically grueling activities for any 5 year-old. I sat and watched almost wishing I’d kept him home at first because it all looked so difficult. He kept up and was having a great time…

In a ceremonial fashion each student came up and did a back-kick to break the board Mr. Chris was holding. James’ board broke into 3 pieces with his 1st kick!

Ms. Teri gave James his tiger stripes while Master Clint signed James’ broken board. What a proud little boy he is.
