Chris Newsome and Dana Broadhead: 2nd Degree Brown Belt Promotion

On July 27th, Chris Newsome and Dana Broadhead were both promoted to 2nd Degree Brown Belt in American Kenpo Karate. The testing was 2 hours in duration, and consisted of forms, sets, self-defense techniques, and sparring. Both of these students were phenomenal and put forth an outstanding effort.

At my school, all Brown belts and higher participate in the testing to enhance their skills, although only those being graded receive rank. Attached are a few photos from the event.
