Ironberg Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Though I'm a very strong hybrid - I'll go with what has influenced me the most: Tae Kwon Do (Korean). Tae Kwon Do has turned me into a lean, mean kicking machine. "An enlightened man would offer a weary traveler a bed for the night, and invite him to share a civilized conversation over a bowl of...

swooshfinn Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 I study Kuk Sool, but am thinking that if a job leads me to an area without Kuk Sool, I think I am leaning towards Japanese arts, most likely Aikido Kuk Sool Won Jae JahJah Ddi (Brown Belt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
