When I was younger, I always wanted to take martial arts because I was small. But, I never had the opportunity.
I started Shingitai Jujitsu and Russian Sambo a couple weeks ago. It's not to kick ass though like it would have been when I was younger. Now it's more along the lines of rounding myself out. I want to be stronger, more mobile, and gain some body awareness.
So far, I've been choked, thrown, kicked, kneed and have sweated more than anytime I've ever been in the gym. Loving it! Who would have thought that physical violence could be so fun?!
