[Pliablemoose]

My 13 year old daughter earned her green belt last night

:heart:

Instructor said she needs to get more aggressive, any suggestions?

 

[amcdonald]

I bet I can beat her up.
Congradulations.

Congrats...I am thinking about getting my son into Karate...but I dont know if he is old enough. How old was she when she started?

More aggressive: Introduce her to all the FPSes out there

She was pretty old for the class, 11. Most start ~8 years old.

There are some 5- 6 year olds, but I really don't know how much they retain.

debate here on ATOT can be quite agressive!

 

[Hooligan]

show her the "special areas" to go for in a fight. that ought to make her a bit more aggressive.

If they keep doing it they will remember the stuff. The son of my Karate teacher started coming along when he was about 2 years old.
Just make sure the teacher is a good one, who doesn't let kids who are too young put too much strain on not yet fully developed bones.

I have a black belt allready.But i had to work very hard to earn it.
TIP:In martial arts it's all about motivation and speed-
Sometimes a fast woman can beat up a man who counts only on his strenght.

She wasn't too excited for the first 8 months or so, but now the class is 80% boys & she's been noticing boys for about a year

Yes.

My point was that maybe his daughter does not really care for Karate and is only taking it for him.

Still she can have high skills in teakwando.

Congratulations. I'm sure you'll feel better about her dating knowing she can beat the everliving crap out of any guy who tries to get too fresh with her.

I seem to recall a pic from the last time she earned a belt (wasn't that last week? jeez, she's climbing the ladder fast!) where a boy was noticing her!

Congrats for her!

As far as more aggressive, even though it is against my philosophy, I'd probably tell her that when she spars with you that she is hitting and kicking too softly.
