Defying The Odds Barbara McClain is a Green Belt who trains with her two sons Ryan (Red Belt) and Alex (Yellow Tip).   Dear Master Beltavski,   Please share this with the other Masters.   Alex is so very proud of himself and his Yellow Tip and that he broke 2 boards dead center at his testing on August 4th 2009. He has not stopped talking about it; and he has sent emails to all of his friends and his physicians at Cleveland Clinic.   As I was saying the boy whom I was told would be "a lost soul in a useless body" is anything but that. The medical team put "Divine Intervention" in his medical record because they just could not explain why anymore.   When he was born; his brain was completely crushed; the only thing you saw on the MRI was the Fluid in his head and his skull. They told me IF his brain re-expanded it would not function due to the severity of his Hydrocephalus.   So there you have it. He has defied all the odds.   Ryan is just as excited about his Red Belt; and spent a good hour and a half on the phone last night with his friends and dad telling everyone about it.   His confidence and focus have improved greatly with your classes; he is taking less ADD medication now because his training is helping him with in area as well.   This is what learning a Martial Art is all about; I can see your success in both the boys every day of their lives.   Thank you,   Barb McClain | Information provided by T&T Martial Arts, Ltd. | www.tandtmartialarts.com | |
