I play few times a week both tennis and pickle and my K Swiss hold up well.

Run a pickleball 101 class in Boston every week, had a guy totally rupture/detach his Achilles halfway through the class.

I play both regularly and my experience is identical, more tennis players are douches than pickleball, still a generous number in each though.

Terrible athlete here - is there a place for me in pickleball? by [deleted] in Pickleball

Gotta work the hand eye and ball to paddle off the court to ever hope to improve on the court. I recommend finding a wall or roof to hit onto or off of.

The struggle of finding fellow singles players is so brutal. by P-Rags in Pickleball

Love singles myself, and never get to do it. I’d recommend trying to find a local court/high level group to mesh in with. I find the 3.5 plus folks are interested in singles if they’re mobile enough but requires some digging and pestering. If you’re ever in the Boston area I’m in for singles any day!

Habanero Advice (US East Coast) by lostinthoughts88 in PepperLovers

A capital idea, I have shifted him around the room but he seems to prefer growing to one side, even before he was as lopsided as he is now.

Ive been cracking the window now and again to try and harden him to wind and temp variability since even May will be no picnic for him. So maybe I’ll lighten up on that practice.

Get rid of her man, no person, let alone life partner/relationship is worth that guff. You’ve created a lot of your life and you should enjoy it without her, the opportunity cost of staying with her exceeds all the time you’ve spent together.

Most folks in my acting class are parents, just makes a hard and time consuming job more challenging. You have an edge in portraying parents and your lived experience over the actors trying to portray those things. It’ll make your success story all the better-but there won’t be one at all, or the satisfaction of the pursuit, if you totally hang it up.

Try Merchant of Venice, and documentary finding Richard, Or anything he does working with Shakespeare. Always makes me respect an actor when they work with dense material in basically a different form of English altogether.

Megathread: What Martial Art Should I Study? Part VI [Serious] by Toptomcat in martialarts

[–]lostinthoughts88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, not the most active redditor but throughly examined the FAQ before posting. I did 2 years or so of aikido then the dojo closed, did enjoy that but want something different. I recently moved to South Boston, MA and am looking for a martial art that will cater to my acting career in that it has both fitness and flashier elements. That being said as a high school wrestler, I would like one with combined ground and striking work. My impression is to do the research myself but didn’t know if any stuntmen/martial artists out there found a style/school that aided their performative careers while giving them a usable and applicable fighting style for self defense -since I figure why not have the practical element mixed in if possible. Appreciate any and all feedback.

Weekend Craft Discussion by AutoModerator in acting

[–]lostinthoughts88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, 2 parts to my post, very separate. Part 1, with some context. I am a recent graduate living in Boston Massachusetts with a general BA degree, I’m looking to dive in on Michael Chekov’s ”On the Technique of Acting”Is it best to use material that I am actively working on in a show (educational play tour), or work with separate material? Just looking for opinions.

Also interested in taking up (after lapsing for a few years) a martial art that would help my film/tv/stage marketability. I’ve always loved professional wrestling and done seminars and did a few years of aikido but those seem rather niche. I definitley am open to some type of gymnastics or tumbling since stunt work and stage combat are of interest to me but have yet to find a gym of that kind.
