Tae Kwondo

Cooper started Tae Kwando in September at Kimberly Academy in Roy.  He has really enjoyed it and it has been great for his confidence and has allowed him to get more fit. He can go up to 6 days a week, but mostly goes about four times a week.  I like the instructor, Mr Hugh.  Although he is extremely layed back about starting and ending on time, he teaches the boys some good things. 

I love that Cooper is learning new things and that Mr. Hugh expects them to be respectful and courteous to each other and to him.  They are also learning to be disciplined. Cooper was able to test for his first belt advancement in early November.  He did a great job on his kicks, blocks, and breaking the board!
Cooper advanced from a white belt, to a high white belt.  He is looking forward to advancing again very soon.  There are many students in his classes and he enjoys spending time with them.  They are kind to him and he feels safe and comfortable there. On New Years Eve, Cooper spend his evening at a party put on by Mr. Hugh.  The kids had so much fun eating food and playing games.
