Congratulations to Aunt Kari! We went to see her black belt test on Aug 22nd and were amazed at how much work was involved. She ran 2 miles, 200 sit ups, 200 push ups, 15 minutes in this crazy "horse" stance... then about 2 hours of straight punching and kicking, about 1 hour of kadas, then hours of self-defense, sparring, and breaking boards. We were so happy to see her reach a goal that she has had for nearly 4 years.
On Monday night, we went to the ceremony where she received her black belt. It was an amazing ceremony that was really traditional. The black belt people received their black uniforms, black belts, rings, and lots of flowers. Aunt Kari can really be called Sensai Kari now!!
