Task: Perform the art of Kung Fu in a fake battle against someone.
Kung fu has always been an interest of mine since I was a small child. When I was five, I started learning Tae Kwon Do and have loved martial arts ever since. I didn't get to finish what I started because I broke my wrist during one of my sparring classes and was forced to quit. But ever since, I have never lost my passion to learn about all the types of martial arts. And I feel that I had to create this task because it was something from my past that truly gave me joy to do!
So, the first thing I did today was I went online to search for training videos about how to learn the most basic of kung fu moves. I learned how to do a lot of very interesting kicks. Here are just a few:
Inside crescent kick
Outside crescent kick
Roundhouse kick
Yup, everybody was Kung fu fighting! Huhh!! Haha, so I challenged one of my guy friends to a little battle where I could use my skills and I was pleasantly surprised with how well I remembered how to do everything. I kicked, blocked, ducked, punched, and took a bow when we were finished. It was awesome! And I also like the fact that he had a fun time being beat up by a girl... because he obviously wasn't trying to seriously hurt me. Haha. Sometimes, it really pays to be a girl.
Next time (and there will be a next time) I want to get a bunch more of my friends and we can have a mini-tournament! So keep an eye out for that task coming up because you might wanna join the fun! I really want to go forward with this and maybe start attending a class in martial arts. Since I have to go now, I'll close with a respectful bow... *bows* Bye!
