You know when your obbsessed with martial arts when....

[DasZab]

When your children call you sensei even outside of class!

I teach a bunch of high-school aged kids. Every time they know I'm going to their school (it's right across the street from the dojo) they all line up at attention in front of their classes until I "bow them in."

... THOSE KIDS ARE CRAZY

Dude....

...there are times when you gotta let it go!

[Clash]

That's gotta be one of the best jokes I've came p with in a while, I can just picture some one walking in to a public bathroom to see a guy standing there in front stance...

[DC111]

and this is me to a "T"- You know you're obsessed with martial arts when you get up in the morning sore, and the thought of going back to the dojo is all that keeps you going.

Haha, that's me right now.

And whoever said bowing while shaking someone's hand... I've done that before, too.

While training for other sports you think about how the training is going to help your kicks/punches/etc

[NewEnglands_KyoSa]

here's one that i've lived:

when you're getting an hour long MRI on your completely mutilated ankle and you go through ALL the open handed and weapon forms of TWO different martial arts styles in your head, step-by-step!

[Stlthofnight]

When you enjoy practicing various throws in your back yard in the heat of the day with your friend and you're the uke

When you put the school wrestlers into a choke hold and forget they don't know to tap out.

When you practice weapons katas with stage props while waiting during play rehersal

When you actually break the stage props doing so

when you scare your friends (MA or non-MA) while doing your kata

When you plan your work schedule around your martial arts schedule.

When you can determine the MA style of video game characters within 30 seconds.

When you ask your Spanish teacher how to say Japanese words in Spanish

And yes I've done all of these, but I don't play too many combat fighting games, just at my friends once in a while.

everyday I walk up to my fiance and practice throws on her.. that count? she thinks it is fun though..

[bushido_man96]
