warrior combos, various punches and kicks
11 or so rounds of sparring, and a fit test

She broke the blue boards in a flash.
Then in an added challenge she smashed the brown boards.
This man was testing for 2nd degree black belt (the one who is flying over the top of his wife) so he had to do 3 breaks. This one was amazing!
