THE GREEN BELT GOT STRIPED!

Friday night was Test Night. Even though it was Friday the 13th the PASSED!

They are now green with black stripe belts, and are 3rd Kyu (sounds like the letter "q").

Here they are doing their test wazas -- start of which are knuckle push-ups. Yes, that's actually them on their knuckles. If you think it's easy, try it -- hop down on the floor & give it a go! The concept behind the knuckle push-ups is that it will help make their hands stronger for kumite and breaking boards -- which they have to demonstrate now to move beyond a brown belt...

Here they are getting their belts -- it's scary to think that at this time next year they could possibly be testing for the BLACK BELTS.

SCARY!
