TERROR IS A FABRIC OF THIS WORLD and, as we all know, there are different types of terror—some physical, others financial, social, psychological, familial. The terror of this KIA feature focuses on none other than twelve year old Arian D., callsign TERROR!
As his physical skills increase, so do Terror’s emotional and mental abilities. He’s a very smart young man and he uses his cerebral gifts to focus on the issues at hand, i.e., winning.
Notice Terror’s concentration in the photo below as he attacks Bob’s face with an assortment of hand technique and strikes. He uses the same concentration to attack his trainer, i.e. the old guy he beats up when sparring … and it’s not Bob! Ouch!
In the following set Terror is practicing duck & strike drills.
As we see in the above pic, Arian is totally focused, being patient and waiting for the best opening to strike and practice his “target shooting!” He loves this drill and he loves punching and he really loves popping the other guy.
As always, the culmination of a KIA test is the bowing—an act of respect for what the student has achieved. In this case, his Blue Belt.
As the following photo shows, Arian D. has done well—as his smile reveals.
CONGRATULATIONS, TERROR! You deserve your KIA Blue Belt. Next stop, Green Belt! It’s now time to keep the TERROR going! Great smile by the way!
