When I handed out the certificates at our Grandparents' Day concert for completing the black belt song, I included a "real" black belt with a music patch on it that I made for them. I didn't know when I promised them a black belt that I would end up making 13! Recorder Karate is an amazing motivational tool! I'm so glad it was recommended to me by another teacher.
