Karate - Yellow Stripe

Tuesday, July 3rd: Before class, Terri took her test for the yellow stripe belt.
She had to perform snap kicks.

And punches.

And head blocks.

Hold the push up position and perform 5 push ups.

Hang from a bar for 30 seconds and perform 1 pull up.

She passed!
Then normal class started.  Here are part of the warm ups.

At the end, they played dodgeball to work on agility and concentration.  It was the 7 younger kids against the 4 older kids.  The younger kids won each time.


Tuesday, July 10th: At the end of class she did a demo and received her yellow stripe belt.  During class, they worked on teamwork.  Here she's working on punches while her partner works on head blocks.

The next teamwork activity involved being blindfolded.  Their partner had to guide them to a certain spot to do snap kicks.  It was pretty funny watching some of the kids walk their partners right into walls or the center poles.

And in the end, she did receive her new belt.  We are very proud of her.
