REVOLUTION attended Battle at the Rock, put on by Michelle Ray and LRTKD. We had 2 kids who wanted to enter: Austin and John. They did a GREAT job and brought home a 1st and 3rd place!

The kids had to compete in the green belt division again, which was fine. At REVOLUTION we start sparring earlier and it is our focus. However most competitions do not allow sparring before the green belt level. Therefore, John and Austin had to bump up to that division to compete. At the last competition we did not compete in forms, but John and Austin asked to learn theirs because they wanted to take full advantage of their competitive experience. They came in and worked extra on a form and sparring strategy.

Austin got 3rd in the green belt forms division! His superior technique and attention to detail allowed him to medal despite competing against kids with much more experience and much more technical forms.

John really enjoys the sparring, and he also competed in the green belt division. He got 1st out of 6 competitors! He showed good strategy and scored head kicks, lead leg kicks and punches to the body. He listened well. He did good in his first match but we improved upon his strategy for further matches. He listened well to the new plan and followed it to a "T".

Austin also had a great sparring match. He lost in overtime by 1 point to a much more skilled opponent. Austin did a great job in working his strategy, scoring kicks and punches.

These guys represented the school very well and brought home more trophies for our kids team!
Thus far it is our 6th competition for kids, and thus far every kid has brought home medal again.
GOOD JOB GUYS WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!!!
