Last summer, I asked here if anyone had done a martial art and for insight about it. I decided to try Karate, and really enjoyed it!
Then last week, I got the results from my belt-up test, and became an orange belt!
It was nice to see positive voices on this sub, and it helped my life here in Japan!
I just wanted to share my positive story! Thanks!

Congratulations!
Might want to edit “marital art”
That’s a completely different kind of story!
Awesome! Good for you!
And all the haters say we JLifers are always negative…
Congratulations! What karate style did you end up practicing?
If it’s full contact, then it’s most likely Kyokushin, Shinkyokushin or an offshoot. In any case, OSU!
Orange is the new black, so kudos!
I’m glad to hear that! Keep doing your best~
Glad you’re enjoying it. Everyone I know doing kyokushin is a nutter, but they’re also nice haha. A good dojo attracts good people 🙂
That’s awesome! May I ask where are you learning? How often are the classes and how much are the fees?
I do Aikido in Japan and besides it’s pretty different from the Aikido of my og country I really enjoy it!
Doing martial arts it’s a thing I would recommend to everyone. No matter you’r in shape or not.
Good job dude.
