Hey Kanji... sorry, this is a while back. but i wanna bring back the shotokan Karate subject. hehe... i done that for a while too.. i got to brown belt.. 2nd kyu to be exact.. i agree with you. shotokan is amazing.. it kept me soo healthy in body and mind..
I was getting ready to go to black belt
but 2 weeks before i was set to, i had an accident in basketball, broke my wrist. and ever since i havn't been able to do shotokan.. my sensei forbids it. he tells me to just practice the kata's.. but i gave up on it to be honest.. it was a shock not being able to go into competitions and kick ass and win medals haha...
If my plans go well, and i go to japan for a year. maybe i'll go to see their level there.. cos in england where i practiced. their level wasn't great.. after 2 weeks of shotokan., i went to a competition. i got silver medal, and on the way beating to 2black belts..
