Martial Arts (Europe, Kiss, American, members, quote)

Simply out of boredom I suppose, I'm making a thread on this subject.

So are there any martial artists here?
if so, what do you study?

I teach karate, tae kwon do, and aikido

I have taken up kendo, tai chi, judo, and ninjutsu

I am looking into something Muay thai boxing at the moment.

& i got a black belt

although ive had to stop for a while now, what with no time & all.
i loved it though.
i was actually pretty good at it...
& it was hella fun getting to beat up my family members , we're a family of it pretty much.

i've competed in Thailand, Korea, China, Japan, and America.
Though only in Kendo, karate, and tai chi. I've won maybe 9 medals.
Then i hit 14 and I more or less 'lost my edge'
I'm a black belt in ninjustu, aikido, tae kwon do, karate, and kendo.
I made it as far as a blue belt in tai chi, i'm a brown belt in judo. And I'm just getting into Muay Thai.

Doesn't tai chi use sashes?

sash and belt all mean the same thing to me.
And I wear one of those universal gi anyhow most of the time. So i'm required to wear a belt as part of the uniform.

The only time I don't wear any belt is when I wear the button up uniform which I think is more sensible. No belt, and it's easy to take off and your opponent can never use it against you unless they have a weapon, specifically a blade

I used to practice boxing.

Laugh away.

Boxing is ok.
Depending on the kind.

Like Muay Thai boxing. Kick Boxing, Cardio Kick boxing, or american style boxing.
It's wrestling that we would laugh at

90% of all fights end up on the floor.
Don't laugh at wrestling...it's a winner.
