Sept 22,2011 I got my Orange belt! I am excited and cant wait to wear my new belt and start training as a orange belt!

 This past karate class we was working hard. My sister-inlaw decided to bring her two kids along for their first karate lesson. The boy who is nearly 7 and the girl is nearly 5. The boy did a better job an seemed to enjoy it as the girl didn't seem to know what was going on and didnt really pay much attention.  She clung to me a few times, which is cute but when not good when Im in training. Once I'm at karate im in training mode and I expect people to take it as serious as I do. Well at the end of the lesson, me an 2 other yellow belt boys was being graded for orange belt, at the end of the grading we had a punishment dont know why to be honest haha. But we had to do star jumps for a while then leg changes,push ups more star jumps then had to run  up an down the hall 5 times then more star jumps.

I was so tired ! My legs were getting trembling and stiff i felt like i couldnt hold myself up any longer I could hardly walk my leg muscles were so tense an stiff and trembling all at the same time. I am happy that Im gonna get my orange belt next week!! And in 2 weeks ill be training as a orange belt!! Im excited.

I been practicing Pinan Shodan the past month, and I think I finally got it!!! I am pleased with myself as that is a kata needed for your blue blue belt. Three belts above me now (yellow). I am happy with myself.  So the katas I know are pinan nidan and pian shodan, although it needs alot of work yet haha.

Karate boys!

Shaun came alone in july 2011 to join our karate class. He was shy and nervous!

But within a couple weeks, he was opening up an doing well, so well he won the weekly trouphy!
