KarateEd Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Welcome to KF, Lupin1. I had about an 8-9 year break in my MA training between junior high and college, so I know where you're coming from. It is interesting when you get back into MA just how much you recall.

Lupin1 Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 It is interesting when you get back into MA just how much you recall.It really has been. I think if you do it when you're younger, it helps, because it's easier to build that muscle memory at that age and the muscle memory gets ingrained into your system longer. I forget some of the names of things (like a roundhouse kick vs a cresesnt kick) but so far people have been showing me something and then I'm able to do it (mostly) like I've been doing it for awhile. And I'm shocked by how many of the kata I remember and how many tiny details (like shifting weight and things) I remember of each kata. I'm though I'm trying to keep myself from getting "belt hungry", I'm really curious if I'll be ready to wear my 6th kyu belt again by the time I get my uniform in a month or so.
