(black belt is only for adults)

dont get confused thinnking kids system is harder they learn what we learn just its spread out so its easier for them to comprehend.

I am a karate practisioner and i study some Jiu Jitsu as a side style, my main passion and devotion is in Karate, the style of Karate in which i train is GoJu Ryu ( Hard Soft Style) Im ranked 1st Kyu (brown Belt). I will not say my Sensei name(6th dan) because its classified and i have not recieved permission to say it. But hes associated with the jundokan in Japan. His Sensei is 10 dan Tetsunosuke Yasuda Sensei. He learnt his Jiu Jitsu from well knowned Rickson Gracie.


I have been trainning for 4 years in Goju Ryu and 2 in the Jiu jitsu. I look to go to Japan one day, but thats a dream. Hopefully ill make it, i enjoy discussing Martial Arts and im open minded to hear about other peoples martial arts, i wanted to really meet some Nin Jit su , shaolin,katana,and karate practisioners to discuss various techniques.
