Boys are Yellow Belts in Aikido

We are definitely raising some great martial artists. (Is that what those who do martial arts are called?) The boys have taken their belt test in Aikido this evening and have earned their yellow belts.

The boys were a little nervous about taking their tests this afternoon. Actually I was a little nervous for them. I am not sure they knew the techniques as well as they should have. When we were taking Tae Kwon Do, they knew everything about the test inside and out. This time, not so much. But they certainly knew enough to make us proud. Be sure to ask them to show you their forward and backward rolls the next time you see them. They are definitely becoming more agile.

Here is a picture of the boys with their friend Ben. Ben is the whole reason we got started with Aikido in the first place. After Tae Kwon Do stopped, the boys really missed doing martial arts. I was missing the confidence that all martial arts seems to instill in one's self, especially Logan.

Once again, Brian and I are very happy to display the boys accomplishments and to show how proud we are of them.
