drunkenninja Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 My first time posting here, just thought id let my excitement out. I finally found a great Isshinryu dojo in my small town, i took first class today. I trained with master J.C. Burris while i was in high school. He dont teach anymore but i found a small dojo and the instructor seems great! I wanted to get back into martial arts since im now 28. Id like to get my black belt and fight some good fights in the ring before i get too old! Now I can dump the Mcdojo i have been going to recently. Im so excited I love martial arts. I am so looking forward to getting back in shape, and then enter tournaments, winning a few sparring rounds and even enter a bad mans contest sometime!
