My oldest son and I have joined a Tae Kwon Do class. My son is doing great. He has picked up on it quickly. I, on the other hand, am having a bit of trouble. It has been about ten years, or so, since I was involved in any kind of physical exercise. I wish I would have had a camera there, so you could all have a good laugh. There is something humorous about a tall skinny girl struggling to touch her toes. I think I did one and a half push-ups before I collapsed, but I am still sore from it. Have you ever watched a dyslexic try to follow left/right instructions? The assistant instructor showed me one of the basic kicks. She said I was doing good, but it felt more like flailing than kicking to me. I really need to get in shape, but I still have to get through the first few embarrassing weeks.
