Morgan Earns Next Karate Belt

Morgan earned her next karate belt last night. Our karate school recently changed affiliations and is now part of Mile High Karate out of Denver. I really like the new program and am so glad our instructor made the switch! One change that comes with the new program is that promotions now happen every 2-3 months, instead of only every three months. Also, there is a new belt system. Morgan would have been earning a brown belt in September, but now she has her "Low Red" belt in August. Nice!!

A word of warning. When it came time for pictures, Morgan felt like being a bit unique...

You'll also notice the new top -- blue instead of white. That's because Morgan is in the leadership program. She goes to one or two classes each week and learns to be a teacher. She also gets to learn various weapons as part of the program. She loves it!!
Arienne -- I've been meaning to ask...Is Mile High the same karate place you have Andrew go??

No, Andrew goes to Peoples Kenpo Karate. They were white on top and black pants when they are in the leadership program. I think that that is the only school they have, although they are starting another location at the rec center that we back up to! YEA! They promote every three months or so also. Andrew took a three month break so that we could use that money towards summer day camps and such over the summer. He's back to it and still loves it! I love how unique that cute little girl is!
