Karate Lessons

I started karate lessons today. And i love it. So much built up frustration and lonelyness have gone. I worked up a real sweat today and i'm going back for more. I'm signed up for 4 months and once this 4 months is up i will be signing up for more. Have support from hubby and lots of support from mum and dad. I'm glad to actually get out of the house and do something i enjoy doing once a week. I'm going to feel this tomorrow but i can deal with it. i am so proud of myself.

Good on ya. I do Kung Fu twice a week and enjoy it heaps. Only been doing it about 4 weeks but has built up my confidence by so much. How many times a week are you doing it? I felt it the next day after the first week but not after that.

well done you!!!!!!!!!

and yep you probably will feel it tomorrow lol...but just keep moving and you will come right...it will be a good reminder for a few days of this step you have taken for yourself!!!!!

and I am jealous as cos I can't get as far as phoning for information about the local martial arts classes here

This is my first day logical and by the way i'm scarlet on tm. Hi!

ah ok. Thought is sounded familiar, but wasn't 100% sure lol. Pleased you enjoyed it though.

britelite, you'll get there.

I'm really sore from my karate class. They were right about feeling muscles i didn't know i had lol.

Give it a couple of lessons dolphin and you won't feel it. Yea it's like, 'there's a muscle there? didn't know that!' Do you just do it once a week?

yeah once a week. every sunday.

Good stuff, Im a black belt in taekwondo, and I started back this year but sadly have to give it up for a while due to it really irritating my shoulder (fucked tendons). Its so much fun, and great to get everything out.

Well done dolphingurl you should be proud of yourself.

I am proud of myself. i'm feeling a little better after i went for a walk today.

My two boys do kempo and that looks exhausting enough!

Way to go

I did Karate for just over 5 years(Sensei for 3 years), it is such a good outlet, so good for body and mind, and great for self-esteem also. It is karate that finally gave me the emotional strength to leave my abusive marriage. It really was my first, and most important step to improving my life. I met some really amazing people, some I am lucky to have as close friends.
