Just curious more than anything.

I've got a 1st Dan Black Belt in Shotokan Karate, and was wondering what others on this board also do martial arts?
 
i didn't do martial arts but i had a few boxing lessons when i was younger, only went for about two lessons cuz i didn't like being punched :(
 
I'm a KYU (intermediate) in Kendo,

I can only recieve 2 ranks (Kyu and Dan) and I'm working for my Dan, altho I'll probably have to give up soon coz of college work
 
I know that boxe is not a martial art but Im making boxe (french one) with pleasure
times ago I wasnt so bad at Judo, teakwondo (sorry for bad spelling) and aikido but the clud where I was training just became too expensive and I couldnt afford more lessons (too bad)

see you :lol:
 
Is that Marital Arts or Martial Arts :p , Sorry j/k.

Did some judo and boxing years ago when i was younger.
Don`t get time anymore what with work and such like.

I've been in jido kwan tae kwan do for over a year now. And I've done judo one and off for some time. I was only a white in judo, but right now I have my blue belt in tae kwan do.
 
I used to do Karate around 5 years ago, got to the belt before brown, then give up.
 
I wish I did them but there is hardly anything to do around here, I do jeet kune do and it works.
I got up to orange in karate though it was really crap.
I'm thinking of trying kick boxing since it is what all the K2 champs use.
 
i havent done n e but sum1 told me that if ur a black belt and in a fight and get busted by cops that u can get charged with assult with a deadly weapon. is that true?

From what i was told at judo classes and the boxing gym, Is that if you are attacked (unprovoked) or mugged, Then you are free to use what skills you have (or have been taught) to protect yourself in self defence. But are not allowed to use said skills to start a fight, to provoke an attack (ie, Its your fault) or to show off (ie, I am a l33t ninja fighter and i can kill you with one chop etc, etc.) :ph34r: :rolleyes:

Yes, I've done Ninjitsu(brown belt) and shorinji kempo (green belt). :)

but as for now I'm doing only extreme kicks n' flips, so I can say that I've given up the real Martial art, but Martial arts Rocks! :D
