Your right well let me think about it for a while...Hm...I know I started when I was 4 but I did study for at LEAST 5 years...so then I must have quit when I was 9...Sorry about the mix up, this is the stuff my parents told me and I didn't really think about it. So lets go with that I studied for 5 years and that I quit when I was 9. I probally should have thought about what I was posting before I did it, sorry for the mix up . So that means that I started in '95 and had to quit in '00. The last trophie I have was from '99 for my blue belt form from the Northwest Karate Expo. I really don't remember anything and I have decided that I am going to quit boxing and go back to Karate. Boxing is to easy, I don't really learn anything new, I just build muscles. What do you guys think I should look for when I pick out a new Dojo, and what style do you think I should study? P.S. I was born in '91 and I'm 14 now.

To be honest, it was so long ago that I don't remember... I was probally only about 7 years old when I had to quit. I worked hard though and I understood what I was doing, I wasn't like some of the kids who do it and just think they will be like Jackie Chan or something like that. I am 14 now, so it has been 7 years since I have had any formal training under a sensai. I know that I didn't really answer your question, but I have no idea. I can tell you the belt order if it helps at all. For our dojo it went White, Yellow, Orange, Green, Purple, Blue, Red, Red w/black stripe, Brown, Brown w/black stripe, and then finally Black.

I have been out of Karate for a while, and I would like to see if the members of this forum could refresh my memory because I don't remember alot about it. I made it to red belt before United Karate (the place that I studied at) had to close. Pretty much all that I remember are front and back punches, front and back kicks, sidekicks, most of Bo and very little of Tonfa use. Could someone please help me re-learn/refresh my memory on what I forgot? P.S. I know I don't remember a lot and if you could just give me some basic things that I have forgotten it would really help. I also studied for about 7 years if that helps at all.
