singularity6 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Posted December 31, 2017 We are moving forward on the house. Purchase agreement has been signed... Just waiting on the bank!There will be plenty of space for me to practice my forms and hang a heavy bag. Unfortunately the basement ceiling is quite low, so probably no jumping kicks for me. 5th Geup Jidokwan Tae Kwon Do/Hap Ki Do(Never officially tested in aikido, iaido or kendo)

JR 137 Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 I’ll hold my congratulations until it’s all a done deal so I don’t jinx anything If the basement ceiling is low, make sure a hanging bag will work out before you buy one. You have to account for the chains. I could technically fit a 6ft Muay Thai bag in my basement, but I’d be punching about 2 inches below the very top of the bag. I found that out by calling Outslayer and getting exact measurements, them making a mock-up version with blankets and twine. Return shipping on a 150 lb bag wouldn’t have been cheap.

sensei8 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Congrats, singlularity6; feels good, I bet!! I can now see it...house chosen based on MA needs, and why not, I'd do that too!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
LLLEARNER Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 I agree with buying a house to suit MA needs. Or any other for that matter. My basement will include a small dojo/workout area.
