Going internal teaches you so much about yourself and can bring your karate so much further.

Then, I simply quit.<BR/><BR/>With the right teacher, any art rocks. The internal styles teach many lessons that I apply in karate constantly.<BR/><BR/>The hardest part is not switching for good. When I'm older and have nothing else to prove myself, I'll probably switch. For now, I'm ego and all. I'm not ready yet, but it'll come around.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad for you, you seem to be having fun. Keep it up, you transpire positivism.Mathieuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06914289317924626891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382396310471593265.post-19490204158748502792008-03-31T07:05:00.000-07:002008-03-31T07:05:00.000-07:00I did a some aikido myself years ago.
