Howdy!Hi All

Hi All,

I'm new in these here parts and was just wanting to introduce myself before I got into any discussions (read arguments) with you kindly folk.

I have been studying martial arts for about three years now and am primarily interested in Tae Kwon Do, Animal Kung Fu and some Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, but I'm always open to the acquiring of new info and skills.

I know I'm gonna have to go back and do alot of reading of old threads to pick up on the mood in here, but I was hoping someone could give me a preview gratis-like, you know? Sort of set the tempo for me so I know where to land with these size 11 boots of mine...

I'd be much obliged for any guidance anyone might like to bestow upon me, and feelings ain't likely to be hurt one way or another...I haven't any, see?

Muchas gracias,

RemyA

You'll find serious thought provoking discussions. But you'll also find some absurd topics concerning things like:

- Is Tae Bo a martial art? - Which will win in a fight, a badger, or a rabid hamster w/ a chemical imbalance on steroids? - Which martial art is effective against many opponents w/ knives and baseball bats? - My instructor rides his Harley wearing his gi and black belt, so what's wrong with that? - Bruce Lee could send a guy flying 28 yards through the air with a flick of a booger at his opponent, it's true! My instructor who trained under a guy who had an uncle that went out with the girlfriend of some dude that played lawn darts with Dan Inosanto said so! - Opposing views of Bruce Lee, like: Bruce couldn't beat a parapalegic Erkel on crack. - 100% of all fights go to the ground - No fights ever go to the ground - NHB is EXACTLY like a real fight - NHB is just as much as a real fight as Olympic Tae Kwon Do - (put the name of any martial art here) is far superior and can beat anything.
