Tiny Tiger Orange Belts

 Jaxton and Cooper are in Tae Kwon Do.  They have been Tiny Tiger White belt students for about 4 months.  They were recommended for testing to earn their orange belt.  This was very exciting!  They had to memorize the "white belt form" which included about 18 tae kwon do moves and was sung to the tune of the ABC song.  They also had to memorize two other small white belt "one steps" that are also put to a poem to help them remember which move comes next.  They had to perform these three choreographed routines in front of their entire Tiny Tiger class to prove their knowledge.  Then, the following Friday evening was the belt ceremony where all Tae Kwon Do students that passed their "test" would be awarded with the next belt in sequence.

 Here is Cooper being honored for his hard work by Ms. H-T, his Tae Kwon Do instructor.  Also, Mr. Cabeen, another instructor is tying his new orange belt around Cooper.  What a proud boy!!

 Here, Jaxton is being awarded for his efforts and again, he gets his new belt.  The orange belt students also receive an orange headband, which the boys loved!!

Here are all the students that have passed their previous test and have earned their next belt in sequence.    Each is waiting his turn to be awarded with his next belt.
