Karate and Dance

Brooke has been in karate with Daisy's DoJo for several weeks now. She has learned to count to 20 in Japanese and heck, even Brenna now easily counts to 10 in Japanese just from being around. She has learned the basics of protection, punching, kicking and blocking. Daisy is great with the kids and it's really a great class. Especially while Brooke is so usually shy and reserved...I'm hoping the karate will make her a little more assertive. ;)

Anyway, here's some pics from the class this past week.


punching...

Doing the "karate kid pose" practicing balancing before kicking....


punching at the dummy...


About to get hit in the head with a club...

Or not....


Brooke also had her last dance class this past week.


Brenna was watching intently. She really enjoys watching dance class. She says she wants to take dance... I'm not so sure just yet. ;)

The girls got to have cookies and got certificates of completion for their class.

Brooke also got a perfect attendance certificate! (that one should really go to mom for getting her there every week, right???)



And just a random cute picture of my two favorite girls to end this post on...
