A later-in-life beginner, lifelong learner and constantly in pursuit of personal challenges. Traditional Karate teaches us humility, and challenges the mind, body and spirit. Finding and surpassing one's own perceived limits and boundaries is a way to find peace with a pursuit where one can never perform perfectly. Only imperfectly, with intention and commitment. Nana Korobi Ya Oki means "fall down seven times, stand up eight." Many lessons in life and business can be learned through these kinds of pursuits. I have been studying under Sensei Mirko Buchwald at Zanshin Dojo in San Francisco, and we are part of the TOGKF following Sensei Morio Higaonna, who heads the worldwide organization. https://togkf.com/ https://sfgoju.com/
