My grandson, Noah, 12, enrolled in a martial arts program in the past 12-18 months, and has become quite proficient in the sport. Recently, my wife and I were privileged to watch him demonstrate his skills; along with a couple dozen other male and female participants. Believe me. I was impressed.

Fast forward.
In the past couple of months, and while
Noah has continued to pursue Taekwondo in an after school program, during the
school day he was given the choice to participate in P.E. or an elective
program, Ballroom Dancing
He chose (drum roll)
... Ballroom Dancing
... Ballroom Dancing
In the past couple of days Noah and his
dance partner competed against ten other teams. The video is nothing less than
amazing! Noah and “Lucy” scored a very respectable 3rd place.
(Did I mention how inestimably proud of
him I am)?
I will never think of martial arts and
ballroom dancing as mutually exclusive again.
