YukiNeko Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Hi there, Found this forum while searching for Go-Kan-Ryu stuff. I'm sorry to say I found some very dissheartening comments here, but be assured it has not fazed me. I recently joined GKR with my sister (came home after 5 weeks away to be informed by her she intended us both to join) not that I minded of course! It was a little expernsive, but the people are great and I've even met someone who lives just up the road who I would never have known otherwise! I really joined for the "spiritual" side of things. I'd like to be a more focussed person and I hope that by learning karate I will understand my body and mind more and their relations with one another.... Sorry I really am babbling arnt I ?! Glad to be here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotten Head Fok Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Hello YukiNeko, Welcome to Karate Forums ! You must be stable and balanced in your foot work, if you have to use your martial knowledge in combat, your intent should be to win. If you do strike, you must release great power! The martial arts are easy to learn, but difficult to correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YukiNeko Posted August 27, 2004 Author Share Posted August 27, 2004 Maybe I'll actually tell you all about me, well I'm 18 and a gemini, I have 2 older sisters, the eldest is the one who does karate with me, and a younger bro. hmm... I love my cat lots, and my second fav animal is birds (right now looking after a rainbow lorikeet that was hit by a car) I'm a big anime fan, tho not as big as my sis who own more than 200! I really want to learn as much as i can about MA, even though I havnt even got the basics down pat yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
