unDertow Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Hi , I just found this forum, I'm online kinda often, and I'm really into martial arts. I'm 17 and i've been training for about 6 years. I hold several black belts recognised by several organisations. I consider myself a very well rounded martial artist. I've learned from some really good teachers. Got any comments, questions, criticisms ? put em on the board. punch kick shoot pound submitt
thaiboxerken Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 Several black belts in several systems. Can you give a more detailed description of these. Also, let us know who your instructors are/were. You might find something in common with others in here. Just kick 'em, they'll understand.- Me Apprentice Instructor under Guro Inosanto in Jun Fan Gung Fu and Filipinno Martial arts.Certified Instructor of Frank Cucci's Linxx system of martial arts.

unDertow Posted August 17, 2001 Author Posted August 17, 2001 I have a second degree blackbelt in sa-gi-do under granmaster kates. I also hold a blackbelt in kickboxing from him. I know its kinda odd for belts in kickboxing but there were only a few and when you test you show how much your speed , power, endurance, and combinations have improved. Both of these belts are recognised un the W.A.M.A (worldwide alliance of martial artists) which was founded by my instructor Grand Master Kates. I also hold a 1st degree blackblet Under the I.S.D.I.A (international self defence isnstructor's alliance). The I.S.D.I.A. is an organisation of blackbelts only and it is run out of Spain by Grandmaster Santiago Sanches. I concider myself a hybrid artist my standup skills are a combination of kickboxing muay thai, tung soo do, and tae kwon do. My take downs come mostely from wrestling and judo and I am proficient in submissions once i get on the ground. ( note the name unDertow i am very good from my back) punch kick shoot pound submitt
