I though t complete was gonna do a 'round by round' here tonight. I'm so dissappointed. Me & my students are competing in the AAU NJ State Karate Championships tomorrow. I'm always a little nervous the night before, even though I don't fight anymore (too old - 61 yrs. old). I am competing in kata (forms) & kobudo (weapons) though. I was looking for a diversion before turning in.
