This weekend Ricardo hosted his first internal Karate tournament for all the kids he teaches. It was an awesome day and we had a great turnout. From what we could count it was about 142 people that paid, not including the kids that were with parents, and those that snuck in after it started. The kids did a great job and my family had a wonderful time watching a tournament for the first time and we greatly appreciated their support and help. Ricardo insisted Alexander wear his Karate uniform before it started and everyone thought he was just the cutest. Ricardo and ChaChi performed a really cool demonstration with weapons and all of the kids performed really neat demonstrations too like how kids learn self defense techniques through Karate. They used a fake knife and a wallet and one of the girls played the girlfriend and beat the crap out of one of the boys. It was a riot. Actually what was a riot was all of us using the knife to pretend we were stabbing each other. hehe. Everyone loved the little, little kids that competed as well. They are so cute and try so hard. We're just very thankful for the success of this school and that it continues to grow.
