Monday 23rd March 2015 - Body Combat
I've been transformed by this gym class. I am now, officially, a kick-boxing fiend and a kung-fu master. And all after just two sessions.
In my first class, the instructor happened to make eye contact with me whilst yelling 'YOU ARE A WARRIOR'. Coincidence? I think not. He saw my weedy punches and thought 'damn, that red-faced girl can upper-cut like a pro, and she's quite clearly found her chi'.
I'm so fierce that, tonight, I was upper-cutting so hard, I punched myself in the face. I'm hoping that nobody noticed my moment of dazed shock. Particularly the instructor, because I don't want him to strip me of my warrior title.
Also hoping that the slight, yet unmistakable, swollen lump above my eyebrow will disappear sharpish.
