H everybody,
my name is Stefania. I hope you will accept my friendship and help to attain one of the things I most value in my life. I would like to learn jujitsu. The fact is that I am 36!
Since 1995 I have tried to studythis discipline, but i've had some obstacles that have prevented me even to become a yellow belt!!!
Lastly, this year I developed a pri-arthritis to the right shoulder which rendered me impossible to continue lessons. Do you think I will recover completely?
Until now I have learned the salutations, the falls ( sorry, but I live in Italy and i don't know exactly the English words, nor the japanese ones), some of the first 20 moves of the  of the 5 sectors.
Of course I was told by the teacher that i wouldn't take part to competitions ( but I wonder how could I actually learn, so).
Instead I would study to become a teacher.
Well, I am Maestro fo piano and I know that competitions teach you to become a master, don't they?
Can you give me advice, please?
Can you also tell me why I wanted to learn jujitsu and in the gym they made me study jujitsu' Ehich is the difference, apart from the fact that I have learned that judo is the modern form of jujitsu?
Have you ever read Zen and the art of archery by Eugen Herrigel? It's so illuminating!
Peace,
 
                                  Stefania A.
