hajimekyu Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 In my style, physical limitations are not a barrier to growth and accomplishment. Shortly after I began my first session a kid on a bicycle plowed into me on my motorcycle.It broke my collarbone in three places.Fortunately,my instructor was willing to allow me to continue and to work around my injury.It has been a long slow healing process and still feels a bit fragile at times,but I am glad it didn't stop me.I visited a class last night in another city and the sensei there is legally blind.I have also met a black belt in a wheelchair and a master with leg braces.I may be moving out of the area soon but I plan to find ways to keep up my studies.I may not find a place as good as what I now have right away,but I will keep searching. I am glad to hear that you are not giving up. hajime~kyuThe more I think I know, the more I find I have to learn.
