Sparring Finally!!!

Camden has been asking about sparring since we first started TaeKwonDo back in June. Since the equipment "Sparring Gear" was almost $200, we decided to make sure that TaeKwonDo was something that Camden was going to want to stick with in the long run before investing the money. I think Santa was watching from the North Pole and knew how much Camden loved TaeKwonDO because he brought Camden sparring gear for Christmas.
Geautreaux's only has 1 week every month that they dedicate to sparring, so Camden was so excited for his first sparring week (January 10-14) Geautreaux's runs on the school districts weather guidelines. This is where the problem begins...
Monday=Snow day=Class Canceled= No Sparring
Tuesday=Snow day=Class Canceled= No Sparring
Wednesday=Snow day=Class Canceled= No Sparring
Thursday=School in Session= 1st and only sparring class for the month!!! YEAH!!!!!
Camden was very nervous for his first sparring class. He ended up having a very good time and is very excited for next month!!! Here are a few snapshots from Camden's very first sparring night!!


Camden and George! Talking instead of sparring.. shocker!!!

I take Taekwondo as well! Sparring is probably the most fun part of TKD but the sparring gear does take forever to put on. :)
