good for you man . then you can take me to the dojo on tuesdays and thursdays.

cut off his ear?!?! AWESOME!!!

hi!!! welcome to the forums

i can only do splits after i warmed up and stretched a little bit. i never could before i started martial arts. i never even thought i could do splits until i started. but since then i can do it lots.

cool

hello

you fell of the couch and broke your arm. i dont even think that i can do that. well get better soon.

i always liked jackie chan. he is what got me started in the martial arts. i always liked his movies. bruce lee is awesome too. all though i never watched the entire thing of any of his movies. i always did something else and missed some parts. ill have to watch them again. but jackie chan is my favorite so far.

probably my worst mistake is i never keep my guard up and my head is always open. also i back up too far and i need to follow up my kicks with some punches.

i agree that if someone was invading your personal space you should take the first shot but id start to walk away first. id try to avoid it unless i was sure they wanted to do something to me.

hi

why do you want to move it. its funny. i need something to laugh at every now and then.

i wanna do something

sorry monkeygirl. i dont remember her/him.

ive never seen any of the movies fully either. i think monkeygirl has a good idea.

hello Aaron

my favorite is: [on surrenders] Those are not Iraqi soldiers at all. where did they bring them from? thats funny

\definately dont train on something your not sure of. if you dont know something wait till the next class and if you dont go over it in the class ask the instructer after class.

ive always known the split when your leg is in front and behind you as just a normal split. if thats wrong blame my mom. haha. but anyway my hips hurt but not down to my knees. it used to be really bad but i just practiced at home and it stopped after a while.

id just find out who i thought would be the best teacher. first id take an intro class in each one then id chose.

the deathless quotes are good!!
