It was Tyler's karate tournament. This year he decided that he wanted to do chambara (sword fighting) and make up his own weapon kata. Tyler always does great at chambara. He took 2nd place this year. He really wanted to do a weapon kata. He hasn't used weapons much in karate. I asked the "Master" if he could try it because he really wanted to. He said yes, so Tyler came home and started to make up his moves. He decided that he wanted to put his moves to music and we used "Kung Fo Fighting" It was really good. He was the only kid who preformed a kata with a weapon. He got up and two out of the three judges game him a perfect score. He was thrilled. He took first place of coarse!
