TKD Tonight!
Thursday, 29 January 2009
I'm rather excited today, as tonight is my first lesson of Taekwondo!
Growing up on a healthy diet of Video Games and Saturday Morning Cartoons, I've always been curious about the world of Martial Arts. I spent days delivering torndo kicks as Ryu on Street Fighter II and I've seen the match where Rob Van Dam knocks out Jerry Lynn by jump-kicking him from the middle rope fifty times.
 As a child, I wanted to try it but there really never was an oppertunity. Now, as a child-like adult, I have the chance to give it a try. I've been planning to excercise more for a little while, and this seems and ideal way to get back into shape. Simply lifting weights or running for the sake of it quickly gets boring, but when you have something on which to pin your regime, like TKD or something else you enjoy, it becomes quite easy to stick to. Aaron's already a red-belt and can deliver some impressive kicks, so he's coming with me, and James, a Judo practitioner, will be joining me too.
So, I'll see if I like it tonight, then I can decide if I'll continue with it into the future. Maybe I'll be the next Jean Claude Van Damme. Maybe I'll get knocked out by an 8 year old.
Hiiiii-yahhhhhhhhh!
