I think it's time to move out of my single garage Dojo and rent a local hall in Napier a couple of times per week. I have twenty square meters of 40mm thick mats for grappling on...stacked away. And I only bring out six at a time.
So now I'm thinking about it seriously after my trip to Auckland. Training with martial artists from all different styles made me think about of how much I have enjoyed my journey so far. How every art you have trained in is a part of you. Even if you don't like it anymore, or it's not the in thing now. You are at least aware of it.
I will post updates on where I'm at with this venture. I have some good contacts in the New Zealand martial arts scene who I'm sure can help me out with planning putting a school together. So it should be fun.
That reminds me of something one of my instructors used to say. "Martial arts is very very serious, so it's very very important that we HAVE FUN!"
