Are Your Karate Kicks Better Than the Old Man’s?

Do you think your karate kicks are better than mine? You are probably right.

Hi everyone – I am the Old Man Kicking.

I have practiced martial arts for a long time. I learned to kick from some amazing instructors in Shotokan karate and taekwondo, as well as from several training partners in other styles over the years.

I have practiced my kicks several times a week pretty much every week since I took my first karate class over 30 years ago as a college student.

Now, I have a career and a family, and usually the only time I can find to kick is at 5:30 in the morning before I get my kids ready for school and go to work.

But I do that often. I get up almost every morning, go downstairs to my basement, and I kick.

And I post videos of me kicking. I still like to jump and spin. I am not throwing 540s and 720s, and my kicks are not as fast or pretty as they used to be.

But I am still kicking. And that’s the point of my channel.

As I get older, I am still kicking. And I think you should, too.

If you want me to help you get started, let me know in the comments.

I think kicking is something that can help keep us all younger even as we get older.

Your kicks may be better than mine. And that’s fine with me. I am glad you are kicking, too.
