Matt was able to test for his orange belt last night.
Jake wasn't very interested in the festivities.
Starting out with stretching. Matt's not keen on the splits.
Reciting the oath.
The self-defense test.
Matt really liked the teenager he was paired with. I think it's because his name was Matthew, too.
Jake is still not interested.
Partner test. They had to demonstrate that they could punch and kick without touching the other person. That's a lot of restraint for 5 year old boys.
The weapons test.
Matt was called up first to accept his promotion.

He was so proud of himself. He did a great job!
