Tae Kwon Do

I took Little Prince to the village hall to have a try at Tae Kwon Do this evening. He is mega keen as its the same fighting as the Power Rangers!! But he still isn't well (fell asleep on the sofa this afternoon!!) so I was going to wait till next week to take him. However, he was so keen and excited about going that I decided we would give it a go. He was bouncy and happy all the way there, but as soon as we entered the building he changed his mind and wanted to go home. I had a chat to the teacher and he said not to worry and we could sit at the side and watch the session. There were only three kids there, as its the school holidays at the moment, and the teacher had them demonstrate quite a few different moves for Little Prince. Little Prince was quite impressed but the shouting made him nervous and after about 20 mins we came home. The instructor said there had been kids who had sat and watched for weeks before joining in, so if Little Prince wanted to do that it was fine. I'm not sure what Little Prince will want to do next week, but if he can overcome his nerves at new things/environments then I think Tae Kwon Do will be a good outlet to channel his bounteous energy. And fingers crossed that when he's back on top form, it will help tire him out a bit!!
