Maddie's 1st TKD Demonstration

Demonstation Team

Deep in Important Conversation
Pep Talk with Masters Brett and Nicki
Post-McDonalds Sillies

Master Frank's son Paul - Maddie's usual sparring partner and a real cutie. He falls asleep at the drop of a hat - during testing, board breaking, sparring - cracks me up!

Madison continues to love Tae Kwon Do. She has been asked to join the demonstration team - we're proud of her memory, the way she practices and wants to do well. This was the first demonstration of a new team. They have been practicing for the last few weeks M-F for 2 hours a night and Saturdays for 2 hours - such dedication. What helps is they all REALLY like each other. Maddie has a bunch of big brothers and sister. They are all so very nice - it's such a terrific group for George and me too. Master Frank and Master Lee are wonderful with the kids...and are well-respected and liked...and have done much to create a tightly knit group. She has a few more weeks and will be testing for her green/black belt. Pretty cool if I do say.
