空手道

Week 2 of Sweetheart and Cookie's after school karate lessons.

They are learning the basic karate introduction moves very quickly

They seem to have the determination and drive to learn.

Renshi Mark (their instructor) and Sensei Anna knows exactly how to teach children so they understand and want to learn more.

--RESPECT for the MIND, BODY and SPIRIT--

"kiai--気合!"

So far I am very pleased with the their lessons. 

Sweetheart and Cookie look forward to attending after school. 

They are always excited to learn something new in karate.

Plus they're keeping up well with both their school work and their karate lessons.

Can you believe the season is over already??

Bam had a great time playing football.

We enjoyed watching and supporting him and his team.

The girls and I enjoyed learning the cheers, the chants and the rules and the game of football.

We admire Bam for his strength, understanding and commitment to becoming a strong athlete and team player.
