When T ball wrapped up we were left wondering what would be a good way to spend the summer. I have two nieces and a friends kids who all do karate and love it... Why not give it a try; especially if it will help the kids to learn to focus a bit better and become better athletes.
We've been going for two weeks now and already both boys have committed to becoming black belts (which takes normally about five years to accomplish in the junior belt system). I am very proud of the hard work they've put into; every day they have to do five push ups and five sit ups, and practice every day they don't have class. Not to mention work on things like respect to their parents, keeping their room clean, and following the principles of the black belt all the time. Pretty tall order for a bunch of preschoolers, but they are just that awesome!

I hope the boys stick with it! And they look adorable in their uniforms too!
