Last night in class my daughter (5 years old) did her best taikyoku shodan. She did it all by herself with everyone watching. She also did the other skills required. According to Sensei she should earn her 2nd stripe next week at the grading.

I am. She has worked hard. I was a little worried when she had to do it alone. But, she did it better than with the group. She gets to distracted sometimes. She also showed no fear.

Great news! I hope that one day when I eventually get round to having children that they will want to follow in my footsteps...

This is my dream as well. It's up to us to create a generation of well learned and respectable karateka or any other style.
