Mark enjoyed Karate @Pinkaholic79 ๐๐ฆ๐บ and was good at it. Unfortunately, he went on to do 'full contact' stuff and 'Savate' (French kickboxing) which we didn't like so much!! Although he was good at that too, he still got a lot of nasty bruises, black eyes etc. He eventually 'saw the light' so to speak and went on to do Kendo to a pretty high standard. Although you still got bruised a bit sometimes, the armour helped minimise but headaches were common - that's what comes from being beaten about the (helmeted!) head with a big stick!! I have to say though it's really exciting to watch! We went to see him in a competition in Brussels some years ago - really explosive action but very quick so very difficult for an ordinary person to follow!!
Thank you all, it's something good to do for him, the instructors are great and take notice of who falls behind, unlike street dancing, they focused on the "better ones".
I used to do karate, but all that shouting gave me a headache.
Wonderful @Pinkaholic79 ๐๐ฆ๐บ he really looks the part. My hubby and son took that up when Lee was 14 to give him something positive to focus on. They both got to Black belts and then they started up a junior group ( as an add on to the senior group) for the young ones like Dinky.
He really looks the part. Hope he does well. ๐
A great thing to do to teach discipline and determination. Glad he is enjoying it.
Looking good Dinky. Use your new skills carefully.
Follow the rules and never forget the most important rule of all - TIE YOUR BELT SECURELY!
