My answer to Serwan about the danger of training very little but thinking you can actually defend yourself. “Dedication and effort beat talent if talent doesn’t work. Every single time. Do you truly want to develop skill in anything, then you have to put in the time. If you want to enjoy many things, enjoy. 😊 But don’t expect to be very skilled. And with karate, if self defense or combat is something you want to be able to handle… not being skilled enough has bad consequences. “

Firstly thank you for the allowing me to join this community, and second for creating a place where people can learn and evolve their karate.
