Having both Martial Arts and music as pursuits?

Musashi said, you could not chase two rabbits. But he also said, "pen and sword, in accord".

have both been a martial artist and played a couple of musical instruments all my life. It dawned on me, aside from my oldest friend, that I have never come across another person who shared both pursuits, as if they are separate, incompatible worlds. Somehow, I was able to juggle both (besides a career, etc.) though I participated and achieved more as a black belt. Ironically, in retired life I find I'm more active with physical training, while my old friend keeps busy with music and wants nothing to do with punching and kicking!
