My friends Bob and Kay's 6 year old is in Karate.... and they went for their first semi-competition/demonstration last week...

I worried about Jill at competitions at first because she was SO dadgummed little! I mean she was half the weight of most of the boys she competed with. But, she wasn't afraid to hit or kick. She was so wirey and quick that she did pretty well. It seemed like she could kick higher than her legs outta be able to extend! Was entertaining. hehehe

She didn't ever get hurt much. Few bruises now and then, nothing more.

LOL! Good for her :) Sometimes also at that age some girls are bigger than the boys their age and actually have a size advantage!
