It's 4.22 am here and I'm up very early trying to complete an assignment. And I'm in procrastination mode. Therefore, it is the perfect time to post a thread.
Has or does anyone here participate in Tae Kwon Do? It's something I've always wanted to try, but I haven't yet because of time constraints due to my other commitments (work, uni, family, dogs, running etc). It's something I'd love to do further down the track when life is a little less crazy (that and taking up the piano again).
But I'm curious about it, because I've never known anyone really well who does this.
What the commitment and training like?
How did it make you feel?
Was it very hard to begin with? Did you always feel like you were challenging yourself?
What was the best thing about it?
What was the worst thing about it?
Did you like the whole philosophy surrounding it?
What would you recommend looking for in a good school?
If you have experience with any other martial art, please post about that too!
Sorry, these are not very specific questions, but I'm the type of person who likes to get an overall feel of something before getting my teeth into the nitty gritty.
Thanks
