Pierce did pass his last testing, and now is officially an orange belt. Woot! Well, sorta woot. I'm not very happy about the idea of him actually sparring, but what you gonna do? Keep them at home cradled in your bosom their whole lives? Hey, that's not a bad idea is it? :-) Also, the sparring gear is expensive!! I expect to see him sparring in a suit of gold.
I am proud of him though for his hard work at this sport. He really loves it.
Oh, and just because she's cute.
You need to tell us what all this sparring stuff is. That lingo I'm not so sure of.
ReplyDeleteWAY TO GO BUDDY!!!!
Sparring is when they start doing hand and foot contact. They kick and spin, punch, etc. They are to learn how to block all the kicks, etc. THey pad up BIG time, so it's pretty hard for them to get hurt, but STILL. We watched it at last testing, and I saw a girl get kicked in the face twice.
ReplyDeleteWow!! I don't know if I would like the sparring either!! Good job anyways Pierce!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Pierce!
