Good for you Rosemary. I'm biased but I would argue that no sport on earth has the benefits that good Karate styles give: balance, flexibility, strength, timing, concentration, discipline and that work the entire body so completely. Enjoy.
Alice, I was serious. You should sign up with me. The cardio alone was worth it and i hate aerobic stuff. This was fun and you know whose face I was visualizing while throwing punches, don't you? Absolute Zen, baby.

Don't forget to take the time for meditation too. Same effect as doing a bunch of Hail Mary's and Our Fathers ... without all the, well ... you know ... Hail Mary's and Our Fathers.
I would like to sign-up...I am going to see what I can work out in my schedule. I would like to work off some aggression by throwing a few punches, too. There are at least two or three faces I would imagine... Hmmmm, this is gonna be fun.
