Michael's Belt Graduation

Last friday Michael graduated from Senior Brown Belt to Red belt! He's about 3 more belts until black and getting more excited each graduation. This last graduation was cool because his teacher started this thing called "Black Belt for a Week" where each week a selected student gets to wear a black belt to classes and Michael was chosen first! My mom was talking to Master Kang(his taekwondo instructer) and told him how Michael bows each morning and night to her and my dad. Master Kang was very impressed and so were a ton of parents and even students. It was fun to see how excited all the students were about being to wear a black belt as their faces dropped and they all looked at each other. We have some pretty sweet video of him that will be on here once i figure that out, but until then here's some photos. Michael is on the far left.Shots of him doing his form.

All the new red belts. This is the group Michael has started with(a few have quit) and it looks like they are going to the end. They are the top belt group of the school and have gotten pretty close.
