karate in the family lineage

[Patrick]

Well, I don't/didn't study martial arts. But, my grandfather was a brown belt in Judo, my dad took some hybrid of an art or two (I forget) for a very short time and my little brother got up to junior blue belt in American Kenpo.

so if your the boss around here,how come there isn't anything under your belt of experience?

[Patrick]

MA wise? Well, managing a community usually requires the skill to manage a community and not a knowledge of the subject manner. That actually helps me at times. Hurts me at others, but that hurt is completely made up for by surrounding myself with smart/smarter people.

"that hurt is completely made up for by surrounding myself with smart/smarter people."

true,so what made you want to start up a martial arts website?

[ShotokanKid]

I am the only one in my family (other than my cousin in TKD that takes a year to get BB)

[BLueDevil]

I beleive I am the first one in my family to study then I convinced my Mom to let my brother join (he's 12) So he is now going to get his orange belt soon. That was one of the reasons I joined, was so I could a family legacy that I could pass along to my daughter and any other children in my future.

I study martial arts as well as my son. My better half is considering it, but watches all of the time and is actually beginning to express intrest.

so what made you want to start up a martial arts website?

I thought there was a need, I saw a good name and I thought I could create the best one in the world.
