Red Belt

Hayden's latest achievement is testing for his RED belt this past Thursday. He was very excited to get this belt because it means bigger and better things in class. (Also it's closer to black which is his goal.) He's with the older group of kids now and can participate in more advanced skills.
His test date happened to fall on sparring day which is fine since he's doing better in that class and seems to enjoy it more.


The man in the black gi is Mr. Masney the director of Hayden's school. He is wonderful with the kids and really expects them to do their best. Hayden's doesn't always like Mr. Masney for this reason because Hayden likes to goof around and Mr. Masney calls him on it.
"My kid, in trouble? No. . . " :)

Here Hayden proudly displays his new belt. Now imagine Hayden screaming at 250 decibels

"MY NEW RED BELT"

Showing off the belt before class today. It really does look nice with his uniform.
