Our Yellow Belt...Again! :)

This past Saturday was DJ's testing for Kajukembo. He was so excited to finally test and get rid of his white belt! :)

Here he is posing before the testing.



DJ's biggest fan. He clapped for DJ after every test.



The kids got tested in 7 different areas:
Balance
Team Work
Coordination
Focus
Control
Memory
(and something else I don't remember)

Here he is with control. He had to walk on bubble wrap and try to not pop any. If you know DJ, you know how heavy his footsteps are. His dad says it sounds like "hams hitting the floor". I thought he would pop the bubbles all the way down! He did pretty good in the beginning. Once he got to the last foot, though, it was like popcorn popping. This ended up being the one category that he needed improvement. That's okay, though. Even his instructor, Cifu, couldn't get through it without popping every step!



Here he is with kicking and punching:



He got 12 out of 14 points and received his certificate and is awaiting his yellow belt to arrive.



Our proud yellow belt.
