Mr. Benavides is my uncle. He taught me that when I fall I should get back up and try again. It doesn’t really matter what made you fall, what matters is that what you do about it.

Before karate ever started I was bullied once or twice in school, and I let it pass but then it got worse.

Karate helped me build confidence in the way I walk and talk so if I was bullied again I would stand up straight with my head up high, and tell him with confidence to “stop bullying people it’s not good for you.”

Then he never bullied me again.
