Taekwondo is serious business..... very serious..... and it requires deep focus, as you'll see in the following pictures. Bugaboo and Peanut had their green belt test recently, and they had to sit and meditate for a minute or two to prepare mentally and physically for the test. Bugaboo struggles with staying focused, so Master Cho has to watch him very closely to be sure he's not goofing off or missing something important. Peanut is usually very focused and intent on doing his best, but check out the pictures below to see Peanut's silly side! You'll also see the great joy and fun that the boys experience doing Taekwondo. They both love it and have worked so hard to learn the skills and techniques necessary for each new belt level. They have accomplished so much since they began, and they still have much to learn on this journey, but for now we're all just enjoying their recent success and looking forward to future challenges.
