Hello all, i've gotten into Karate a bit late but have trained hard to achieve 1st Kyu so far, although i'm now 42 I feel fitter than ever!
I tried Wado Ryu a while back but had an accident with a finger tendon and had to take a break until fixed, during that break I moved location so had to look for another club and found a great club teaching traditional Shotokan.
Luckily I got my kids interested and we are all now Brown belts, my boy and me are really starting to see the rewards of training/learning and hopfully my daughter will soon "click" as we are not far from taking our black belts.
I've also recently looked into the Bunkai of Kata and confirmed that Karate is a mixture of "cans of worms" and Russian dolls, each time you peel back another layer you can see lots more to learn and understand.
I'm also looking to expand our club and take up a teaching role.
