I want Baby C to not only learn basic martial arts and self defense moves (for preschool of course! LOL), but more importantly, discipline, respect, attention, control, and confidence.
We have a one month trial at Pallen Martial Arts in CV. So far, Baby C really digs it, and the instructors (and us) are pleasantly surprised at how quickly she is picking things up, but I am still unsure if she is still too young. They require a one year commitment and it is NOT cheap. UGH! There are cheaper karate places locally, but this one comes recommended by a few friends.
She obviously still needs to work on her form, but super cute watching her trying to keep up with all the moves! Here are some pictures of Baby C in action:
Master said "horse stance" , not "horse DANCE"! Who's shaking their bootie?
Still need to work on the "horse stance".
Splits and dip - pretty intense, doubt if I can even do it.
Is that the correct arm?
Ah yes, the correct arm!
Funny to see the size difference, Baby C was obviously the youngest in the crowd!
Baby C getting her white belt, the Sifoo did a simple "ceremony", kinda like a cute "knighting" ceremony.
Sifoo tied the belt around her tiny waist (around twice with still much slack)
They bowed, we clapped, it was all very cute!
