What kind of protagonists do you identify with in movies? I’ve always found myself enamored by the Karate Kid series (Note: I’m talking about the original movies—not the Jaden Smith one where they practice Kung Fu instead of Karate.). I have to confess I covet the kind of discipline, delicate skill, strength, and concentration that martial arts students have. My lazy Sunday morning movie marathon got me thinking about the possibility of me learning a martial art. But before I could lace up my sneakers and head out to learn, my plans came to a full stop. Where would I learn martial arts? Who would teach me? I wasn’t so sure if Indians were big on martial arts. Mumbai, although a city of vibrance and variety, doesn’t seem—at first glance—to offer many places to learn martial arts. Thankfully, after some research at the Fitternity HQ, I discovered otherwise.
