Sparring

Since Pierce has been promoted to orange belt, this means that he starts sparring in class. He was very excited for his equipment to come in and suit up.  They only spar in class one day a week and we go twice a week.  It always rotates days so we won't get to do it each week.  Here's a bad phone pic from the first time: 

He's the shorter one in the middle with the red head guard on.  He loved it with his first partner, but not so much with the next one.  His next partner was a little aggressive and didn't back down the way he was supposed to.  I was worried he wouldn't want to spar again the following week but he was ready to get his gear on and try again!  He won't let us get his loose tooth out so maybe this will take care of it!
