Time versus goals
 

I consider to take up another art (or go back to an old), because there is just too little kendo training available compared to what I will get other places. This is to give myself the opportunities to reach some goals before retirement age. I used to do another art parallel with kendo and in hindsight I regret giving that up. But it was more kendo available then and the situation was different.

Any thoughts about this?

Ask your club can you begin another night. Or get involved in your clubs management... then you will quickly run out of time.

If you do what Bobdony says about begining another night, I suggest that you also comemnt it with the members. Sometimes is really difficult to organize this stuffs if they already have other things to do.

I dunno if you also have or do some other kind of training apart kendou, but if not I'd suggest that. Some gym, or running, or spinning or yoga, or whatever. If is all about MA, maybe I'll decide to continue parallel with kendou, the otehr one I was doing.

If there is now too little kendou, have you asked yourself that practicing more than kendou is your choice, or that you're doing that just because there is not much kendou?..
As for me I'll feel inclinded by Bob's suggestion

There just isn't enough interested people to get anything extra organised. Sure I could do any sorts of 'extras' go to the gym etc ( I already do that some) but well, yes I do MA to do MA. :-(
