Hello from Illinois

[Adamo]

I have been hanging around this forum for a short amount of time. This is one of the few martial arts forums I've been impressed with. So let me give 2 thumbs up to the owners and moderators of this website. You do a great job at keeping things under control. I haven't seen any signs of angry people who battles over what style is better, macho attitudes, etc.

I honestly only started my martial arts endeavor 2 years ago. It's grown on me tremendously. I've enjoyed seeing movies with such feats since a young child. It wasn't until I had some confidence to try it out. I now can't get enough of reading books, websites, magazines, and watching DVD's. After 2 years, I can say that this will be a life long journey and I'm always looking for that new edge to give myself.

Look forward to discussing the arts with you ladies and gentlemen on the boards.
