First of all, I made this my March challenge because I knew it wouldn't be that hard to accomplish (cheater!). Or so I thought. With my erratic work and travel schedule, I barely made time for one class a week.
I had been attending Muay Thai sessions since January. It all started as an accident. I signed up for a Poi class (as an attempt to lose a few pounds) and somehow, I ended up in a wrong schedule. Too ashamed to walk out of the session hall, I just went on and gave it a try. At first, all I did felt really awkward. My form was poor and my punches were an embarrassment. But gradually, I got a bit better with it, day after day. After 3 sessions, I got hooked. Who would have thought that this girly-girl would go for something so "macho"? I surprise myself, as well. Personally, I think Muay Thai is for everyone, male or female. It improves physical strength, speed, agility and discipline. In fact, I don't find myself panting after walking up five flights of stairs. I can carry around heavy weights for longer periods of time, as well. And for a girl who always appears to be a weakling , I can throw a straight or a jab like a mean b*tch. (haha.)
I plan to continue with Muay Thai for a few months more. Perhaps, I will throw in yoga a couple times per month, as well. IJ has just talked about it in the previous post and it got me missing yoga once again. :)
