One Belt Closer to the Goal!

At most every karate belt promotion/graduation, the demo teams also perform for the students and families. Cameron's main instructor is the complete bomb! (He would be the one several feet off the air in a kick). He is always amazing to watch and learn from!Congrats on completing orange belt and moving on to purple belt Cam!


Steve was able to get some cool pictures with the light coming through the windows!

The whole Bobby Lawrence School of Karate fam!

Moving on to purple belt means Cameron starts participating in sparring. He was so excited when his sparring gear arrived that he slept in the helmet the first night (thank goodness it is soft:). He gets compliments after every class as he is such a hard worker. The 45 minute classes wipe him out a little as he puts so much effort into them. I love one of the signs that hang at the studio that says something like: "The more you sweat in practice, the less you will BLEED in battle!":) I am glad he is learning such discipline and also self-defense moves in case he ever needs them. His confidence has sky-rocketed since he started. Way to go Tum!
