Sifu Kyle Alexander:
The kids went hard for an hour and a half, displaying basics, forms, grueling calistenics, and tournament sparring. I saw a new level in their training come out for that test.
One of the things that made this test noteworthy is that this was the first time I have ever put kids up for Blue/Green. And have them pass. They are now the highest ranked kids I have or have ever had. Danny and Liam had to go through a grueling test including multi man tournament sparring - a first in testing for any of my kids.
Everyone really shined that day. It was followed by the awarding of the sashes. Parents wore proud smiles as they left with their budding warriors.
