For Christmas this year the grandparents gave gifts of classes for the kiddos. Ajax signed up for tae kwon do classes and Noomi signed up for dance.
Ajax has attended three karate classes at Master Shinn’s in Okemos and loves it. He’s in the Tiger Tots class and so far has been the tallest in his class, which he thinks is pretty cool since he’s one of the smaller kids in class. He attends class two day a week, which seems a lot, but he’s starting to get pretty excited at the prospect of earning higher belts. I’m not sure if that’s the right lingo or not, but he’s got his eyes set on the yellow belt.
Noomi has attended one dance class (Creative Movements)(ages 3-5) and she was beyond excited. Excited doesn’t even capture it. When I got home from work, Noomi was already in her ballet outfit spinning in the dining room. As she’d been talking about dance class for month she was over the moon that she was really going. On our drive there, however, she started to get nervous and said that maybe she would only watch the class. When we got there she met several of her friends from school and all nervousness went out the window. I watched her through the window (apparently we’re not allowed in) and she was the only little one break-dancing and spinning on the ground… thank you Mr. Ajax.
