Hello everyone!
A quick introduction.
I started lessons at an EPAK school here in LA about 4 months ago with my husband. We are both total newbs. We always wanted to take some martial arts classes together. We are doing it as a hobby mostly - something fun to do together, for self defense, and for fitness.
Many of the men in my classes have had to adjust to the fact that I'm a girlie-girl with pink sparring gear and highlights. They were a little afraid to hit me at first, but they caught on pretty quick that I'm actually a bit of a brawler. I tend to picture everyone as a 6'6 260 lb. bodybuilder coming at me on the street and trying to kill me (always have to be prepared) and it really helps my motivation. That and my day job involves working with a multitude of attorneys and paralegals, so class is great therapy. :ultracool
My husband just got his yellow and I am studying to test next month.
