Ryan's Black Belt

About a year and a half ago, Ryan decided he wanted to take karate. They have a Shotokan karate program at our YMCA so I signed him up. They say karate teaches self-discipline and self-control and when Jason deployed the first time, this was an area Ryan struggled with. The program has been great for Ryan and it has been fun and exciting to watch Ryan discipline himself to earn his different belts. Last Friday, Ryan tested for his black stripe and graduated to the adult beginner class.

Way to go Ryan!
