This past weekend was nothing but karate. State team training as usual on Saturday morning, followed by a grading. DS is now a brown striped belt and proud of the fact he is the same belt level as his brother got to before dropping out. Then Sunday we had another early start for a karate tournament the other side of town. DS did well, winning his kata (out of 10 kids) and narrowly missing out on making the kumite finals (8 kids in total) and ending up 4th. He did well considering all the medal winners were a year older and all state team members.
Oh, and he was chosen to be one of 10 kids from his club to do a karate demo at the local cinema for an advance screening of the new karate kid movie. He did well and he (and his brother) got to see the movie free of charge, as well as get popcorn and a drink. He was excited and they both seemed to enjoy the movie.
