 |

Okay, so some of you may already know that I take karate. My current rank is shodan ho (brown with black stripe).
Anyway, we received a new student back in January. He's eleven year old, cute kid, very energetic, and very enthusiastic. We became friends pretty quickly. Over the course of the past few months, I've been spending a lot of time helping him train. Whenever he performs a punch incorrectly, I show him how to do it. If he's not doing a block properly, I guide him through that. You could say that I took him under my wing as my protege.
Recently, we saw the fruits of our labor. At a tournament that happened recently, the little guy won TWO GOLD MEDALS! He had only just begun karate in January. Most kids who start then don't usually win anything in tournaments, but he pulled it off. He's come such a long way in just a few short months and as a teacher, I'm truly proud of him and his accomplishment.
