Why Kick ‘n Knit?

I have had a blog about my animals and my life for two years.  You can check it out at this link to Fuzzy Logic. 

In 2008, I opened a new chapter in my life.  A goal to reach some sort of Balance.. wholeness.  I had tried Tai Chi before and I liked it, but I couldn’t find a class in it locally. 

Shotokan Karate was being offered at my local YMCA, so I thought I’d watch a class…  I felt the movements calling to me.  I wanted in.

This blog is to chronicle my journey with Karate and hopefully educate and encourage others with an honest look at this path.

 It won’t be easy.  I’ll probably be in a lot of pain, but I expect to reap some incredible benefits.

About the same time, I took up knitting… I’ve crochet for years, but wanted to try my hand at socks… and I’m sorry but crochet socks don’t have the same appeal. So I started learning that as well.

In August of 2009, I decided to move this blog from karate-kyu.com to it’s shiny new domain “Kick ‘n Knit” and combine both karate and knitting.
