hello all! I'm an old guy (41) that's re-starting his karate journey! We'll see how these knees do. I've been away from Shotokan for almost 5 years now, and missed it too much. I started karate with my daughter intially, and her and I both reached 8th kyu (yellow), but she grew bored, and we stopped going. This time around it'll be just me, so wish me luck! I've trained in aikido for a year or so, off and on, and about 2 years in bjj sporadically, but karate was always in the back of my mind. The dojo I'll be re-joining has a lot of kids/teens, and I think that's kept me away for awhile. I'm going to try to soak up as much traiing as I can, and not worry about kids! Oss!
