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.

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.

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)

:wave:Hello you sound very interesting



:Your work at home sounds like it may be more intense than at class.

:kaioken:You certainly sound like you have a fire for the martial arts.
