Black Belt
So this week Zachary became a Cho Dan Bo, which is basically a black belt in training. Its really cool to watch him perform the more advanced forms. He does it with such ease. In January, he is evaluated to see if he’s ready for the 3 test process. Pretty cool stuff Almost there BDC18EAA-8CEC-4EF1-AE2F-0020C1A7A99C
