Kia! Karate Warrior!

Today was Haydn's first day taking karate.  He is taking lessons twice a week at PKSA in Trenton training in the Korean Martial art of Tang Soo Do.


He was fascinated by the "mirror wall" and did a great job learning basic skills.  The best part of his day was getting his name on Miss Tonya's Challenge Board.  He could choose from a variety of exercises to perform in one minute.  Haydn chose to do push-ups of all things.  In one minute, he did 30 push-ups (ok, so they looked more like wet fish flops by the time he reached 15 or so but his teacher still counted them :)).  Since he did the most in his group, he won the push-up challenge!  Check out our push-up champion!


Haydn has tried a couple of team sports in the past but hasn't really been excited about them.  Today, we saw excitement and pride in his face!
