Christopher has been taking Tae Kwon Do lessons for close to 5 years. He has been attending 2 classes a week and practicing at home.For the past month and a half, he has really been focused on learning 3 forms. Every day, without needing to be reminded, he has practiced them at least 3 times. This little boy gets himself in his uniform and makes sure we have his sparring equipment before leaving for practice. His dedication and perseverance have impressed both his parents and earned the praise of his instructor.
Last night, all his hard work paid off. He tested for and received his first degree Black Belt. I'm not sure who was more nervous during the testing, him or his parents. He claims that he was nervous, but watching him, you would never know. He was confident in his forms and broke his boards without hesitation. He was focused in sparring. He made us all so proud.
Congratulations Chris!
