Päiväkirja - ShyGuy, 05 huhti 12

:-) I went on a scouting expedition, yesterday; it was to check out a Dojo, karate school, that I recently learned of. As I've said, in previous posts, I'm trying to kick things up a knotch, pulling out all the stops, to be as effective as I can in my weightloss journey. Though I've been working out lately, walking and weightlifting; there's been one element still missing. I'm a Martial Artist, and to keep improving in this area, it takes more than reading books, which I have been doing; but, you have to train. The Dojo I visited, though it's of a different style than I got my Blackbelt in, is closely related; so I recognized some of the Katas they were doing. It has a family atmosphere, similar to the dojo I used to train at, and the classes are run in a similar way. I was welcomed, by one of the senior students, as the blackbelts were in a meeting, but I'll go back to observe, another class, and meet the instructors next week. After participating, in a couple of introductory classes, both there, and at other dojos I'm interested in; I'll decide, where, and continue my training. All the dojos have positive and negative aspects to them, but nothing so dramatic as to keep me from signing up. I'm actually very excited to begin training again; it's been too long; and I could, within a few years, earn another blackbelt, and begin to progress on to a 2nd degree blackbelt, and further. :-) That, of course, would be the gravy, because my ultimate goal is for it to help me to continue to shed the pounds; and therefore keep it off. Have a great weekend eveyone! :-)

I don't know much - my martial arts knowledge is limited to playing teenage mutant ninja turtles on nintendo and the cartoon series - but i do know the blackbelt is the best...right? Sounds formidable.

Thanks. Getting your Blackbelt is like getting your college degree, it's a great accomplishment, and not many people who try martial arts classes stick with it long enough to earn their Blackbelt; no one that began with me, as a whitebelt, went all the way. However, it only means that you have a firm grasp of the basics, because once you get your blackbelt, that's when the real learning begins; and why it takes a lifetime, to truly become a Master. You can become extremely proficient, in your style, and others, but there's always more to learn. Even Bruce Lee, a legend in the martial arts world, didn't consider himself to be a master, because his art, Jeet Kune Do, was constantly evolving, and still is. That's also what makes the martial arts so attractive to me; I know I'll never get bored with it. :-)

Good for you....you certainly have diverse interests and seem to be committed to your new lifestyle and improving yourself. A gourmet cook who has a blackbelt...how interesting! I hope that you find the perfect dojo to continue your training and a new world of opportunities opens up for you. You have a great weekend as well.
