If you want to use hand weights to increase intensity, do so only while striding. Always master the basics of moving, stopping and turning. Skate safe and smart. Control your speed. Skates are wheeled vehicles and subject to all traffic laws.
Pedestrians have the right of way.
Karate by Brian Hursh History Contrary to what most people think, karate did not originate in Japan. It was actually born on Okinawa, the largest of the Ryudyu Islands in the East China Sea. Chinese traders and missionaries brought Chinese martial arts to Okinawa, where the peasant farmers adapted the arts to suit them. When Japan invaded in 1470, intent upon making Okinawa a Japanese colony, the peaceful islanders suddenly found themselves unarmed, without even bladed farming tools with which to defend themselves or attack their adversaries. Although their determination saw them successful in their training, and many opponents dead, the Japanese army had come to stay and would not be put off despite any insurrection.
