Martial Arts

Many years ago, when I was in my earlyish double digits (but pre-teens,  I think) I took classes in judo.  I enjoyed it, mostly, and I think that it was a really good thing to have done.
Boo and Skibo are now --- somewhat younger --- learning Korean martial arts.  They seem to be loving it, which is good: their teachers are fantastic: caring, yet willing to push them to make sure they extend their limits.
Today they went to a three hour seminar (meaning a few minutes of talking, then lots and lots of kicking and punching and swinging of wooden swords).  Amazing to watch!

Yours, hoping the kids will stick with this,
N.
