That sounds amazing.

I have long been considering taking up some kind of martial art form, just for conditioning and, as you say, 'poise' in situations. Years of rugby and weightlifting were fun, but I've hit almost every goal I set and now that I'm in my 30s I kinda want to try something different. Like you describe, the control and understanding of your body is important. I learned a huge amount through both my chosen areas, but maybe it's time for a fresh perspective.

No Krav Maga in my area sadly (the main one shut down in 2018), but boxing is plentiful. I might just get into it.
