Short Family Story
One night after school, a dad and his daughter walked into class. The girl had a rough day at school. She felt small and alone. By the end of class, she stood tall. Her dad smiled as she showed him a wrist escape move. Next week, she led her little brother through the warm up. That was a big change. They still talk about that class.
