As far as I know, there are no threads focusing on the martial arts... but there are definitely some martial artists out there... what's your background?

I'm a 2nd degree black belt in Taekwondo - training for my 3rd degree - and a 1st degree black belt in Kenpo. I also know a bit of Brazilian jujitsu.

This thread is just for general discussion on the martial arts - feel free to post pics and videos if you want.

that's great you're that advanced
I'm training karate kyokushin, and I've got only 8th Kyu degree(blue belt) and still training

I'm about even with you, mPWRD. I have a 2nd degree black belt in Tang Soo Do and a 1st degree in Tae Kwon Do.
I haven't taken karate classes myself in a while, but I do teach some kids karate classes on the side.

I practice, Sanda/Sanshou its Chinese kickboxing, we also do grappling and submissions (Kind off like MMA). Its pretty alround thats why I like it . Also been to China 2years ago, to train there for a month 3times a day, wich was really cool.

Now that's cool. I've been interested in visiting the Shaolin mission, maybe get a few tips, but I've heard it's kinda morphed into a type of show and demonstration-based institution... is that true? Either way, I love my studio. It's like my second family.

Edit (to avoid double post): I had the opportunity to train with David Kovar today... he is one hell of a teacher. Some of the drills and self-defense moves he did today were absolutely amazing. If you ever get the chance to attend one of his classes, DO IT.

I've trained Kyukishin Karate for 7 years (started when I was 7 and quit when I was 14) and I'm planning to train MMA next year after I gain a few pounds.
Planning to go to heavy-weight.

I recently visted a local MMA gym, man it looks horrible... Im dissapointed, I need to get back into classes...

Most MMA gyms are stupid. Unless you just want to beat the crap out of someone, a discrete martial arts discipline is more rewarding.
