bushido_man96 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 4th degree black in Taekwondo. I was also awarded a black belt and a certificate by a good friend of mine who put together a self-defense system that is heavy on LEO defensive tactics and women's self-defense. I think I earned a yellow belt in Aikido, and worked up to brown belt rank in Combat Hapkido, both years ago. I've also earned certifications in GRACIE and Police Krav Maga courses, both LEO-focused DT courses. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure which anymore... Other than that I'm also a 4th Dan in Karate Ashley AldworthTrain together, Learn together, Succeed together...

smuraix1 Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 I tried searching for similar post on KF but nothing showed up. I guess its just out of curiosity, to know everyone's experience, considering there are so many different styles. (for me) It makes viewing everyone's responses all more interesting.
