I've been going a bit stir crazy for the past year during the pandemic lockdowns because the dojang where I would normally take taekwondo classes was closed down. I was really used to being able to swing by and hit things on the way home from work after a bad day, lol. It did wonderful things for my mental health.

Things are finally starting to open up here again, slowly, but it looks as though the group I was used to training with has more or less disbanded because the business didn't survive financially over the past year. I've been really depressed about it, but recently I discovered a kickboxing place nearby that looks quite intriguing. I've never done kickboxing before, but how different can it be?

I think I'm going to swing by there this weekend and check it out. It'll give me the chance to meet some people, maybe try out a free class if they offer one, and decide if it's a group I feel I might be comfortable with. I have high hopes for it.

Fingers crossed!
