sensei8 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Fantastic! Congratulations! Given that I only started my martial arts journey in the last couple of months at age 42, seems I'll be 92 if I ever manage to do fifty years on the mat! Here's to the next 50 years! What will the world be like in 2064?Absolutely sensational achievement Sensei8, all the very best to you! Thank you, OleOle!!Even though your MA journey has just begun, those 50 years will fly by, and even though you'll be 92, that's still young. Recently a granny earned her Yondan in Kyukoshin at...a young...83!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
sensei8 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Congratulations! 50 years in the same martial art is impressive! I just felt a bit sorry for myself turning 40 soon...now I have no excuse!Keep it up (I am sure you will)!Thank you, GojuRyu Bahrain!!Imagine how I feel, now that I just turned 57...things creek and snap whenever I move...however, the floor cries out for me to return, therefore, I do. I think the floor is a sadistic unfeeling taskmaster....hehehehehehehehe....I'd have it no other way...nor would you!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
