Martial arts? Go on!
Hello!
I love martial arts. Unfortunately with the lockdown, I haven't been able to attend classes, but it's still a love of mine.
It all started with taekwondo. I spent about three and a half years there, and achieves my black belt. I left because I was doing more teaching than I was learning, and so I decided to switch to karate. I did wado kai karate for two and a half years, and in that time I achieved my blue belt. I was a month away from testing for my brown belt, but I had to move for school. I then did a little mma and jujitsu after I moved.
I'm hoping to do some kung fu after this lock down has been sorted out. I picked out a place that does wing chun and northern shaolin. I think it'll be a lot of fun and that I'll learn lots!
Thank you for the ask, I love any excuse to talk about martial arts!
Hey kid, look at me.
I want you to T-pose. Turn your right thumb up and your left thumb doen and look at your right thumb. Move your arms up and down a bit until you feel a nerve running from your armpit to your palm. Now turn your right thumb down and your left thumb up, and look at your left thumb. Keep your chest facing forward and your shoulders back. Move your arms again until you feel that nerve again. Keep alternating between these two for a minute, or look at each thumb thirty times each.
Now sit down. Put your left hand firmly under your left buttock, palm down. Keep your shoulders back and put your right hand over the crown of your head, very gently pulling it to the right. Do this for thirty seconds, then do it again but with your right hand under your right buttock.
These are stretches for the nerves in your arms, and are very good for people who sit behind a computer a lot, or fibre artists, or you name it. Do them daily. They will hurt in the beginning, but keep doing them, even after the pain has gone, or it will return and you'll have to start all over.
For all my bug lovers out there 🐛❤️

Hey i’m a fashion design student so i have tons and tons of pdfs and docs with basic sewing techniques, pattern how-tos, and resources for fabric and trims. I’ve compiled it all into a shareable folder for anyone who wants to look into sewing and making their own clothing. I’ll be adding to this folder whenever i come across new resources
