Tested for purple belt

[FearlessFreep]

Yesterday I tested for purple belt, as did my 14 yo son, Daniel, and 13 yo daughter, Jessica. Daniel and Jessica are in the adult classes.

The test was about 2.5 hours, mostly single kicks, double kicks (kicking two targets: in front and behind, to the sides, or at angle) Hoshinsul, hand strikes, plus some review of BJJ. The hoshinsul was mostly based on grabs from the rear: shoulder grabs, hands and bear hugs.

We took videos and pictures; I will ry to post them if I can find ones that are not embarrassing

Congratulations you three!!!

I kept thinking, "Poor instructor!"

I remember some of those moves from Judo - not how to do them exactly.
