Eugeu_Ryu_Stylist Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Three times a week. Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran-Lilith Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Tuesday and Thursday nights, and occasionally a Saturday seminar. And, of course, we're expected to spend time training on our own.

Eugeu_Ryu_Stylist Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Yeah, I love training. Our Mon.-Thurs. classes are an hour long. On Saturday class lasts an hour and a half, to two and a half hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran-Lilith Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Tues and Thurs adult class is an hour and a half. I go for kids' class, too, though, to help out and to learn, and that lasts for an hour. So, on Tues and Thurs, I'm at the dojo for about three hours. I love it to death, and so many people have trouble understanding how a sixteen year old girl could possibly love getting beat up at a dojo more than shopping.

Eugeu_Ryu_Stylist Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Yeah, I am a 17 year old guy and my friends think that I am wierd. They think that anybody who practices the Martial Arts are wierd.One day, my friend Kevin told me that I wouldn't have a life if I didn't practice Martial Arts. I told him that Martial Arts is a way of life, and that it is the same thing with him and basketball. You have to devote your body and soul to gain mastery.

Kieran-Lilith Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 My friends don't think I'm weird. They KNOW I'm weird. I've been called obsessed frequently, and for people who aren't MAs, it's hard for them to understand that MA is a way of life, not an obsession. An obsession is something you mold your life to fit around, a way of life is not molded around something, it IS something. A lot of people just don't get it. Two of my best friends were in the MA. One's already quit. The one who was there before me, even, will be quitting. I couldn't dream of quitting.

Eugeu_Ryu_Stylist Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 My friends don't understand it. I have been practicing Martial Arts for almost 11yrs. I started with Kenpo and Shotokan. Then I moved on to Kung Fu, Wing Chun, Shaolin Chuan, and Tai Chi. Then I decided it was time to try Muay Thai. I still practice those arts when I am not practicing Eugue Ryu. I just love the Martial Arts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran-Lilith Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I'm a lot new than you are, I've only been around for about two years. If you want to count previous MA time, you could say closer to three years....but I've always been fascinated. I was one of those kids who sat and watched the Ninja Turtles, the Power Rangers (who rocked my world), Dragon Ball Z, and I ran around and played fighting games with the boys.I wish more people understood it, but you can't really expect them to understand it. Learning to fight to live with peace is really a foreign concept to some.And I have to go know, because it is past midnight and I have exams to study for in class tomorrow. I AM only a sophomore, after all.

Eugeu_Ryu_Stylist Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Man, I just got done sparring with my friend Mike. A few weeks ago he approached me and said he would like to learn Karate, but he didn't have enough money to go to any classes. So I taught him the basics, and how to apply them, and now he can use them in combat. I'm just happy that one of my friends took an interest in Martial Arts.
