Hello' my name is Matthew and I'm from Australia. I have been doing Karate for about 2 and a half years but I'm only orange tip because I had an accident about a year ago to my ankle in which I had to have an operation. My fibula ruptured and I had to have a plate and screw put in but got them removed about 4 months later. Its a lot better now but still feel weird when i have to spin around a lot.

I'm 25 years old and my goal is to become black belt. The funny thing is when i first started my first class in karate I absolutely hated, but I just kept going and going. After about 2 months I started to feel good about, I think the reason people quit early is because the information is overwhelming and does your head in for a while.

Hi Matthew, welcome aboard.





Hi Shawn,

For the record, Matthew wasn't naming a style there, but simply two kata he's been taught. His art is Go Kan Ryu.
