If you want to be in Karate ask yourself this: Will I have to get myself up from the couch a big issue? If you have a Mom and Dad, are you gonna make them fight with you to get in the car and go to Karate classes? Am I going to commit myself? Will I follow instructions? Am I ready? In Karate, everything is super disiplined. If you make a mistake, you'll have to pay for it by doing their orders. Remember, Senseis are big on disipline!
