I was in Tae Kwon Do when younger but Sensei was bad. He was more interested in practicing his new Psychology degree on us than teaching Martial arts. I recently followed my children into Aikido. My son (13) is a first degree jr. black belt. My daughter (8) is a 1st degree brown. My daughter is very motivated to reach jr black belt. I promised her once she gets her black bet in Aikido she can start another discipline. She has chosen Kung fu style karate. I figure by the time she graduate HS she'll probably have 2 or 3 different black belts. In this day and age, it's a good thing. If my pretty little blonde girl wants to learn how to kick boys butts... Momma is more than willing to pay for it! <grin>

I just wish there was a Kendo club near here, both children would do well in that and it would burn off a lot of this extra energy they always bombard me with.
