Seth joins WRESTLING!

This was Seth's first wrestling practice, he did really well and was really excited to learn.

In yoga this was the cobra pose, I noticed they used a lot of yoga poses during stretch time.

Rolling down the mat...They took the first practice kinda slow and they taught, going in for your partners leg and then your partner would then do the same...then they learned step 2 of that move which was knock them to the mat and Seth wasn't sure how much he liked being knocked down....he hurt his elbow and face (when his elbow hit his face).

After the first practice we had one sweaty, wiped out boy...

Second practice started out the same way with the stretching...

and rolling...

then they paired him up with this kid (as you can see is pretty big) they started showing new moves where you go in and grab you partners leg and pull up till his foot is up by your shoulder....well, every time this kid would grab Seth's foot and get it that far up Seth would hit the mat. Wham..

Seth hurt his wrist by landing on it and came over to me and said he wasn't sure if he really wanted to do this anymore. I told him "let's just finish this practice and we don't have to come back if that's your decision" He said "Ok" so the coach yelled "everyone on the wall and watch the next move"....so he has his high school volunteer come up and show the second move and it was grab the leg and pull up like they did before, hold it there, then with your other leg sweep your opponents other leg and watch him crash to the mat. I looked at Seth and he was looking at me and was shaking his head NO and moving his hands like "lets get the freak show out of here" I started laughing and waved him over and said "let's go" I told the coach this just wasn't our game...

I wish my camera battery didn't die, I would've loved to have that picture when he saw that kid hit the mat. Priceless. He knew for sure at that moment it would NOT be him. I love him for knowing for sure that it's not for him. It's fun watching him figure it out.
