Our little Sr White Belt

Kayden started Tai Kwon Do in January. He goes once a week for an hour. It started out kind of crazy because there was a big class with a wide range of abilities but after a few months they made a smaller class and he has done much better. We took the month of July off (due to crazy life) and then started back up in August.He works really hard at it and usually comes home pretty sweaty and tired. We decided to set a goal to have him be able to test for the next level by the end of August and he did it!
He had a 2 1/2 hour test a few weeks ago, I know. I couldn't even stay and watch it, it was so long. His Master said he did great and he was proud to present him with the next level Sr White Belt last night. He set another goal to test and advance to yellow belt by Christmas.
I'm glad he has something physical to do each week, but that he is learning to chanel that energy and use it in a focused, constructive way. Way to go Kayden!!

I think its great that you set goals for them to realize it keeps them motivated all the time, i can tell you as a daughter it was very important to me all the support my parents gave me.
