Martial Arts!

Katheryn started martial arts last fall and has been having so much fun with it!

Katheryn has been getting stronger and more confident.

She was very happy that today she got to test for her yellow belt!

Nailed it!

Parasport - Karate

Nick had his first night of Parasports. It is one night a month when PT and OT organize a group of kids to try a different parasport.

We missed the first month, they did wheelchair tennis.

But this month it was karate.

I didn't get to go (I was working), but Kyle and Katheryn went.

Kyle said that this is how Nick spent most of the time

But when I asked Nick about it, he told me that he liked it

 They went through a defensive and anti-bullying program.
Nick has been interested in martial arts because Katheryn does it. It would be really interesting if Nick could do it as well!

Karate Kid

Katheryn got to start some martial arts last month and is having a blast!

 

She is learning how to kick and roll and it is great exercise for her. (she does need to learn how to do proper push ups though).

 

Katheryn was very excited to do this hand move she learned on Kyle... Brought him to his knees. We all thought it was hilarious. But she knows not to do anything to hurt anyone.

It's funny because we know some of the words they say from Ninja Turtles

She is having so much fun, she is excited to go back every week!
