Jedi has earned his white belt and gi.....
Jedi had his first review for Karate. He did a great job. It wasn't what I was used to for a Karate review I had been to plenty with my Bro. This was very physical very exhausting and very intimidating for me LOL. It was physical for him he had to spar his Instructor both with sight and blindfolded. I love his instructor throughout his entire review he told him the only way to fail is to quit just like in life. Life will through you curve balls it isn't always fair but as you press forward roll up your sleeves and work it will be worth it. You can only fail if you quit! He also let him know that his belt did not define him it was just part of the path a stepping stone to finding out who he is.
Jedi did wonderful he fought his hardest and endured through it all and in the end came out smiling. In his Karate they earn the right to wear a Gi and a white belt. They aren't taught to defend themselves in the air they are taught real life they don't wear pads yet they do it as if life were throwing them a curve ball it is all real. I am confident that if somebody were to grab him today he could get free with the knowledge he was given in the last few months.
We are very proud of our little Jedi and can't wait to see him become a Blackbelt one day.

He is so cute! He has told me before that he wold defend Keaten if anyone was picking on him. That is awesome that he has so much confidence.
Good job, Jedi! Keep up the good work!
