I did martial arts for quite a long time. I finally hung up my gi about ten years ago. A few years ago, I compacted my lower five vertebrae and trapped the sciatic nerve on my left side. I was in pure agony for the best part of two years.

Just over a year ago, I started training again. I've found that the stretching exercises and the general moves and postures of martial arts have helped phenomenally.

What martial art are you starting?
