Ever since the 04/28 Centrale Training my right knee has been giving me trouble. Sharp pains below the disc, probably where a bunch of muscles connect, occur whenever I walk stairs or when I rotate my leg.
Aside from having to see a doc, I've decided to finish the 2012/13 season a bit early. My knee needs rest. I'll still be attending class for the last few weeks of the year, but only for mitori geiko, for social contacts and to help out with shinai maintenance etc. That's exaclty what I did yesterday: I fixed six shinai, had a short chat with a few people and helped out Kris-fukushou here and there.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your sympathy :)
Our dojo's summer break lasts about a month and a half. One is closed from 1/7 through 30/8, but the other only from 12/7 through 20/8.
So yeah, I'm resting up for the next few weeks and I hope to be fully healed by august.

So sorry to hear that! I hope that it heals up soon! How long of a break does your dojo take every year? Hopefully you'll be back up to par by the time classes start again.
