Fiona Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 Hey everybody Wow this is an interesting forum, I just found it the other day but I've already learned a lot from it Anyways ^^ I've been interested in martial arts for a long time but I don't have much expierance. I tried ATA Tae Kwon Do for a bit last year but I think it was what you would consider a McDojo. I ended up living after my introductory lessons. I wasn't able to continue at the time partial because of money and time, I want to start up again now though. Right now I'm trying to decide what school and what style I'de like to learn but mostly I'm looking for a good Dojo. That's about all I have for now

Red J Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 Welcome and good luck in your search. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.
delta1 Posted August 15, 2004 Posted August 15, 2004 I'm trying to decide what school and what style I'de like to learn but mostly I'm looking for a good Dojo. If you are close to this school, you might pay it a visit: Metz's Martial Arts 916 South 10th Street Manitowoc WI, 54220 (920)683-9772 I worked out a little with Mr. Metz and some of his students. First rate bunch! He does primarily IKCA Kenpo, but also mixes other arts as well. Freedom isn't free!

Rotten Head Fok Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 Hello Fiona, Welcome to Karate Forums! You must be stable and balanced in your foot work, if you have to use your martial knowledge in combat, your intent should be to win. If you do strike, you must release great power! The martial arts are easy to learn, but difficult to correct.
