What "talents" do you have that others would be surprised about?

If I get back into training I may do it 1-on-1 or find an all adult dojo. Previously, I always trained with my daughter (there were a few other dads on the floor, but it was a kids class.) The cool thing is the sensei's top assistant was a brown belt (and a policeman). He and I usually trained/sparred together, and he'd share control/self-defense techiques they didn't teach the kids.

Do you compete in tournaments? If so, how often? I've never done Akido. I was comfortable with both Taekwondo and then Karate. We'll see.

Cool! I started training with my kids two years ago. After I joined, several other parents (including 1 other mom) joined, too.

Other talent: I'm a really good open water swimmer. I have won age group swims at open water races. It's a weird sport to like if you live in the Midwest.
