karate tournament




Yesterday was Jordan's first Karate tournament. She did great! I was really surprised at how many kids there were there. In Jordan's ring there was probably 40 or more competitors. She did a great job waiting for her turn and watching all the other kids go. When her turn came she was very focused on what she was supposed to be doing. The commented she had a good side stomp. She did not 'place' to earn extra points, but she did get a cool trophy. All the kids under 8 got a trophy, so that was cool. She played and carried that thing around for the rest of the day. We also got to watch her instructors perform. Mr. Hui and his partner got 1st in the black belt open competition, they were awesome to watch. They did several jump spin kicks. It was great. Mr. Allyn did a sword routine and Mr. Hicks and Nelson did a form together. It was a fun day. Grandma and Grandpa came down to watch so it was extra special for Jordan.
