Testing, Testing

My daughters are both in Taekwondo. A is a green belt and will be testing for her blue stripe on Saturday. She is quite nervous but it’s not her first test. But it could be her last. She’s taking a break from Taekwondo after testing. She’s been training since before she turned six and it’s about time to let one of her activities go. 

But the great thing about Taekwondo is that you can take a break and go back at your belt rank. I know because I am currently on a break. I don’t know when or if I’ll be ready to go back. It’s quite time consuming but it was a great activity. It kept me active, in shape and it was really fun to kick things really hard.

My youngest daughter just started Taekwondo this fall. She absolutely loves it. I hope she sticks with it for awhile. But if she doesn’t, if she finds it too much or it stops being fun for her, I hope she can stop when she needs to.
