Yvonne is now enrolled at Soo Bahk Do with a gang of her buddies from the neighbourhood. We were lucky to be invited to a "fun" class for Halloween last Saturday. Yvonne enjoyed it so much, she wanted to continue. Luckily, we had just arrived, so we've got a full month to give her a chance to learn something. She is also planning to attend during the month of February when we are back here in San Diego. Yesterday, she had a short private lesson to teach her a bunch of the moves. She really enjoyed the kicking part. We enjoy the fact that it is an extremely disciplined activity, yet the kids have a real hoot. The instructor is strict and bellows his way through the class. Yesterday, misbehaviour was rewarded by a whack on the head with a pool noodle. We are now pool noodle fans - every parent should have one handy. It sure gets their attention!!! Yvonne will be getting her first belt on Tuesday, which means she has successfully learned the introductory moves. We'll be sure to remember the camera that day!!
