Of Fist and Feet.

Yeah, translated literally that's what Tae-Kwon-Do means. And, just for fun, I did take that course last quarter. And so did a friend of mine, you know, the driving master - Athreya. We were the only non-residents in the class. This was a little surprising, as our college is like a little India/China town... :D. We had a nice teacher in Sungjoo. He is a fun guy to hang around. Has a bunch of funny stories and is damn good (atleast I think so) at what he does. If I can, I'll take boxing under him in the fall.

The class was fun and it gave a nice reprieve from the usual stresses of course work. We practised a lot of kicking and punching techniques. And man, if you do it regularly, there is nothing wrong in dreaming of one day of being like one of those cool martial artists you see in TV all the time.

We did the front kick, the side kick, the jumping kick and so on and so forth. The drills really tire you out. I initially thought that the class was really short at 35 minutes long. But boy oh boy was I wrong. There were times when all of us struggled physically to make it through the class. Take it from me, It is tiring! But it was a ton of fun. I'm just sad that there is no level 2 class for it :(.
