Kicking, punching and yelling? Yes, and also focus, body control, discipline. I started studying karate about five years ago for exercise and the art of it, at a very traditional school. Seeing me practice inspired our younger daughter, who was then nine, to join also. Now we're both black belts (just tested this past year) and I have to say it has been a great thing and a calming thing for us both. If you're interested, check out the video I made there in the column on the right.
