The day had finally come! Reed is taking karate and yesterday he went to a clinic for boardkicking. He was bouncing off the walls all week long. He was so excited to get his own board to use at home. Colby took him and Blue went with them, of course. Blue can't wait to be four because then he can take karate (actually taekwondo)also. We learned there are two aproaches to boardbreaking. First:
concentration and discipline. That is what Reed is all about. As you can see his hands are protecting his face (they call that the fighter stance). Perfect form requires a side kick in the middle of the board causing it to break in half. Reed performs to perfection. He is the next karate kid.
Then second approach is:
all out warfare. Blue is not so much into concentration and discipline. He figures if he just starts kicking his legs and swinging his arms the board is going to break eventually. An effective approach also. Colby is going to guide him in a different direction... cage fighting.
