M- had the opportunity to perform with the Black Belt Demo team today to celebrate and honor Korean War Veterans. The veterans were presented medals from dignitaries from Korea. The Veterans Park is gorgeous - I am looking forward to going back and walking around to check out the memorials soon.
M- learned this form (correo) in 2 weeks which is pretty impressive as the other kids have been doing it 6+ months. The sound system wasn't great, so apologies for the music. But the kids did great and the audience loved them - and I figured out how to load a video to my blog! The quality isn't great (I don't know why!?) and M- is on the far right of the screen.
Here is the opening number. M- is on the left side back (behind the kid who needs a haircut!)
The event was well run and educational - definitely counted for school today! Lots of Korean culture! Korean songs, dress, flags, and food! We enjoyed a feast including Kimchi after the performance - spicy! M - (my picky eater) did not want to try it, but his Master told him that as a black belt in a Korean martial art, he would try it. Maybe he should come to dinner at my house so M- will eat his fruits and veggies! Ha ha. FYI - he didn't like it.
I loved the food! And I loved the opportunity for my son. He is really awesome at TKD!
