does it count if your uncle taught you at home or at the park?
if so then i studied a little bit of muay thai (thai boxing), didn't learn enough to be really good but i know enough to take on 3 black kids

i used to practice alot of different martial arts, but the classes were too slow and some styles too strict.. so now im currently experimenting on a style i made myself. its mainly a mix of several styles of boxing and a kung fu influensed jiu jitsu. works out pretty well, i combine dodging and grappling for a swift and effective take down. still very very much left to work on tho

I wanna be an awesome karate man like my hero, Chuck Norris!! That way I can become a cop and kick everyone's ass without like a gun or a night stick... or that other stuff like police protocol and back-up.

Wait... what was that?.... you don't think Chuck Norris is a total bad ass?.... I think he heard you think that.... he's pretty pissed right now.... he knows where you live..... I'd be scared if I were you.... start running cause the Chuckster's coming to get you!!!

I used to but because of school I had to quit. Can't say I don't regret it though it was hard. Plus it took time away from my friends and most of them are moving soon.

I used to take traditional Karate for just a number of months, but then I didn't join again after my first payment. Razz

I felt like I had no more time and I just quit at a medium-low rank.

I do but this is my first day here so I'm still kinda shakey on learning how to do things... and some things I don't understand yet, but that will come with time... I practice the Korean Martial Arts TaeKwonDo and I am a brown belt *shrugs* it makes me feel more at peace and is a great way for me to drain negative energy

I use to a year ago, I was a 3rd kyu in karate, but i quit when i felt that my martial art was holding back my power, so now i just work out on my own and run around with the campus fencing club.
