My daughter has been sparring in her karate class for about three weeks now. Last week, she sparred with a woman who's a black belt in karate, and this week, with a guy who's a black belt in tae kwan do. She loves it. And I really like that she's not only getting great exercise, but is building up her offensive skills. And defensive: the other day, her mother asked what the smudge on her arm was, and she replied "It's a bruise, Mom. From blocking a kick when I was sparring. " Very casually.
This is goodness.
