My first tattoo was also done a few wks before my 40th, but it was before I started martial arts training. It is Sammy Hagar inspired. (Another of my passions.) I designed/drew it myself and it is on my upper right back. Now that I have started martial arts, I had decided when I get my yellow belt,I would get my newest ink - a dragon with a kanji character (not sure what yet - probably the one

I hate to tell you this, but your tattoo is missing other parts. The symbol shown by itself is "Bu" or in english, "Military Man". If you want warrior you have to have that plus the sympbol for "shi", which looks like a plus sign w/ a line across the bottom. To get "warrior spirit" you need "bushi tamashi". Tamashi is japanese for spirit. In total you need 3 kanji characters for warrior

Nice tattoo! I have two tattoos. Its a great way to decorate the body externally with what we feel internally. :)

That's a nice choice! I still haven't made up my mind on mine.

Where did you research to learn this character means "warrior spirit"?

OUCH.. oh no.. not for me. I'm happy for you, but me? um.. no.. thank you. My skin has enough decoration, thank you.

My comment is the same as Becky's. But I like your choice! I always thought that if I did get something, it'd be a Songahm star (the symbol/base of my form of TKD) on the base of my heel so that when I went to kick someone, that's what they'd see! But I'm too chicken. My 40th (gasp!) is at the end of the summer, so I'll have to think of something else that's just as exciting to do...;-)

Very nice! Is that your first tattoo?

I have two, and plan to get another. They're addictive! Almost as addictive as martial arts training. :)

That's cool. I don't do tattoos myself, but I don't have anything against those who do get them.

WHaaaaaa?!! Too much pain for me! :)

I've got a band on my leg that I'd like completed with something martial but I can never decide with what! Nice choice of celebration.

Oooo, love the ink! I just got these rather large inner forearm(both of them) tattoos last Friday. One is a tiger and one is a dragon. I'll post pictures. More ink! Congratulations. I also have the kanji for four of the "Five Rings" (the book, that is, by Musashi).
