Hannah's Karate Test

Hannah tested for her new karate belt yesterday. Naomi and I came along to watch. It was very cool: they showed off their jabs, punches and kicks; they practiced escaping from a choking attacker; they swept each others' ankles and knocked down their opponent.





In the end, Hannah was awarded a yellow belt. Here's Hannah bowing to her sensei:

You may have observed that Sensei is very pregnant. (She's expecting in a few weeks.) If you didn't think you could get a custom gi with expansion panels, you thought wrong. She could still put you on the ground in two seconds flat. As she demonstrated on me last week.
