Pedro's Journey to Blackbelt Begins

Step one to becoming a blackbelt. Begin taking class.

It is official my little man at the tender age of 3 has begun to take Taekwondo. He loves to go to class and it has become the highlight of his week. I wondered if he would decide to begin and patiently awaitted for him to join with his brothers and sisters in their love of all things taekwondo.

 He tried his trial week last week and loved it, I wondered how well he was going to be able to pay attention and was so amazed and proud that he made it through the entire class.

Now it is time to line up for his first Official class.
 Let's see how he does now that he is officially a TINY TIGER!



Now we learn to punch.
Hopefully he wont decide to try this out on his siblings!!!



Time to work on high block while standing in a front stance with Mr. Wing.



Time for some no contact sparring.
Where else can you pretend to beat up your friends and not get in trouble!



Now for the part where he actually gets to hit his friends.
I do believe this is his favorite part!!!!



Now this is my favorite part.
The part where they have get to say "I love you, your the best!"

All in all he loves it and cant wait to go back to class on Thurs. When asked if he had fun he says" Yes, Mom." When asked why,"I get to kick butt!". I do believe this will be a wonderful and educational experience and a very exciting journey for him. Did I mention that Isabela, his oldest sister is also a helper and together they provided me with my new favorite pic.
