Pookie passed his Kyuki-Do Yellow Belt test last week. The highlight of a yellow belt test is that you must break a board with a side-step kick. I will let this video speak for itself, mainly. But I will point out a few things:
1. Notice Pookie’s headphones, which he wears during class to cut down the “Kiya!” noises which bother him.
2. Notice BAGD on the mat, offering as little help as is needed.
3. Notice Geetle cheering for Pookie as I film.
4. Notice me choke up and nearly drop the camera when he breaks the board.
5. Notice that he did not cheat. He did not get any help. He did it all by himself.
6. Notice that he rocks.
7. Notice that he knows he rocks, as evidenced by the little happy dance he does just before I almost drop the camera.

That is awesome!
Way to go Pookie!
That looks very difficult, I am happy that he passed his test! Love the picture of him with his new belt, he looks so proud (as he should be)!
Woohoo! He does totoally rock! When he broke it my son started shouting and yelling: “wooohoo! He did it, he broke the wood just with his feet!”
So proud of your little guy
