Hi my name is chris and i have been practicing martial arts for around 4 years or so now off and on. I have been to a dojo for Kempo shorin ryu and gung fu and have studied after leaving the dojo the fighting styles Kyokushin, xing yi and I bought dvds and starting training in shotokan. I have enjoyed learning a bit from all the arts and learning the diffrences and simularities of each. i love the simpicity of shotokan but couldnt find a direct style to practice.
I am taking up kickboxing and training on my own learning the technuiqes and practicing on my bag. I think this is great to learn cause it is universal to almost all the styles in some way. Well I was just making this post to let yall know what im doing and your opinion and I wont be in any kickboxing matches but I dont think that matters much im still going to compete in martial art tournements |

Chris
I would keep with at least one of the styles you mention. If your taking up kick boxing is it at a Gym or via a few videos etc/
The thing is once you're on your own you develop your own "nasty" habits and nobody will be there to correct them!
make sure if your're on your own you attend as many seminars as you can get to and make sure you have your own valid insurance if you want to compete, it will so much dearer as an individual than it would be via an instructor/Dojo

In lew of finding a school to train at, using equipment at home to keep your techniques and skills up is a great idea, and highly recommended to retain skills. Not having a partner is detrimental to timing and such, but not training at all is even more so.
