15-lisa-newbie Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 i think its really cool, and a valuable thing to learn, if you ever need it, you might not, but its fun! "you wouldnt care what people thought of you, if you knew how seldom they really did."
Harmony Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 a) My parents placed me in Martial art classes (Judo) at age 7 because I suffered an abuse situation at an early age, and became quite introverted and lacked confidence in all areas. b) I stayed with it because initially it was something I was good at. I learned quickly, and have always felt that MA was my thing to do. Now I stick with it to help others, especially children, to empower themselves with positive discipline, and motivation so they can master what life throw at them. 31 years later, I have my own Dojo and teach in my home town, life is good;) "Enemies you threaten make armies. Enemies you destroy make graves.""Even though you hold a sword over my heart I will not give up."

Kempohands Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 I began my martial arts training because my parents wanted me to get involved with an activity outside of school. It started out as something to keep me occupied and it has become something that I live for. I keep training because I was drawn to it, because I love learning more about the martial arts. I caught the disease and there is no cure... "To win a fight without fighting, that is the true goal of a martial artist." -Grandmaster Nick Cerio
