I officially signed up today for JKD. What I find most interesting about my last few days of training is finding out how uncoordinated I am. I guess all those years of video gaming didn't really help me with my hand and eye coordination after all.
Time just moves at a ridiculous pace in these classes which is completely contrary to the gym where you just mindlessly go from machine to machine and an hour feels like a day.
I'm realizing that martial arts is more than just learning certain moves or patterns - it is instead a complete mind and body experience that requires coordination and response from both.
In any case thanks to everyone who worked with me today. My robot like stiffness will hopefully not last for too long.
