Looking Like A Ninja


Last night we had an introductory consultation at a local karate studio for Fantaye. We are hoping that it will help her develop her body control and balance, listening skills and respect for authority. I was very impressed by the program, (her instructor sent her home with "homework"- she needs to do chores and act respectively to her parents in order to earn our signatures so that she can break boards in class) and we think her instructor was impressed by her. She has a lot of power and flexibility, she's a quick learner and the facial expressions and vocal commands come naturally to her. We can't wait to see how her new classes may improve her attitude and behavior at home (which is good, but can always be better). In addition, we have altered her diet so that she is getting more protein and less empty, sugary carbs to provide the necessary energy that busy kid needs! 2012 is starting out great for Taye!
