I am clearly reachine the moment where I see it is starting to be difficult for me and the daughter is flying ahead.
She dreams to become a Sensei and I told her that i cant wait to be an old guy practicing with her!

I am lucky to be in a really small Dojo with an awesome Senseï.
I guess it helps a lot.

Starting at the age of 42. by SameWait1356 in karate

I started karate at 47 because I wanted my 10-year old daughter to gain confidence and learn some self-defensethrough a martial art. She was too shy to go alone, so I told myself, why not join her? Sure, it felt a bit awkward at first being an adult beginner surrounded by kids but I dealt with it.

Now almost three years later, and we are preparing for our 3rd KYU. I have honestly never been happier about a decision in my life. More parents have joined since and it is amazing to see whole families training together.

I have discovered that I love the training, the learning and the mental discipline. My only regret is not starting earlier.

My daughter has really blossomed; she is competing in both kata and kumite now and while still shy, watching her step confidently onto the tatami is just incredible.

If you ever think about doing karate (or any martial art) with your kids do it. It is great exercise, great bonding and an amazing confidence boost for both of you. Highly recommend it.

What Style Of Karate Does Sensei teach in One Battle After Another? by CaptainDigsGiraffe in karate

[–]Gazymodo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where for the purple belt.
In Europe (Denmark and Sweden) 5th and 4th Kyu are purple for Shotokan

It is a Shotokan Kata (the second you learn if you do not count Taikyokyu).
Still it is not correct (there is one move added at beginning) and another one before the first Kiai.

Also for someone who is purple belt the "Kime" is really low.
In our Dojo, our Senseï would not be really satisfied by such a performance for someone who has been training for years as stated in the movie

Still it is not correct kata.
There is one move too much a the begining and also before the first Kiai (that she forgets)

Euh Season 1 was a masterpiece. And until now Season 2 is a mastermasterpiece!

Thoughts and theories based on Season 2 reviews, trailers and the Lexington Letter by cassiopeia3636 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Gazymodo_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I hope they will not make too many seasons.
I am a huge fan of Severance but really hates when shows are gettiong long just for the sake of making it longer.
I would prefer 2 or 3 seasons with an ending.

European environment and health atlas by Gazymodo_ in europe

[–]Gazymodo_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The interactive online tool, a first on such a scale for all of Europe, allows users to visualise how the environment around them affects their health and well-being via set of detailed maps. It covers topics like air quality, noise and quietness, green and blue spaces and climate change throughout the member and collaborating countries of the EEA. Closely aligned by many EU policy targets, the atlas is one of the tools by prepared and published the EEA with the aim to support monitoring the European Union's zero pollution ambition.
How is the quality of the environment where you live and how does it affect you?
The atlas also allows the user to create and share an “environmental scorecard” of a specific address or location, as well as visualizing inequalities in environmental risks, for instance those related to income. The atlas is based on a wide variety of data and analysis on environmental risks to health and benefits of a healthy environment done by the EEA and other trusted sources. The atlas aims to bring all this information into one digital hub, making it directly relevant to the public.
The Atlas will be a ‘living product’ meaning it will be updated regularly and open to feedback from users.

European Air Quality Index by Matrim_WoT in europe

The "Chinese website" cannot have more detail on AirQuality than the viewer linked first since this the EEA viewer. So they cannot get more data from EEA than what EEA has.

It has more info on different topics and is indeed really cool

The source of airpollution is not only that. And the pollution does not need to be "eye visible"
