Oh I might lurk around. I often say things in the heat of the moment and then change my mind. I just kind of get sick of being asked to prove myself continuously. This is the internet for Pete's sake. I take what people tell me at face value. If you've been training in BJJ, Shaolin Kung Fu, Judo for 10+ years then hey, I cant prove it wrong one way or another. Unless it's BJJ or Judo If you trained in the States I can't relate much because most of my training has been overseas. And there is a difference even in Muay Thai as was admitted even by the professional jocks who trained at our gym (as far as the training goes) again I really don't know because I have never been to a MT event in the West. I worked as a school teacher for 8 years 4 in South Korea and 4 in Thailand. I jumped back and forth 1 year in one 2 in the other and so forth. In all I've trained in about 15 martial arts in the past 30 years. Some for a few months and a few longer.
So I'll open myself up for scrutiny.
My current quals are that I am a 1'st Dan in Hapkido with the International Hapkido Federation.
I also won a gold medal at the 2008 World Hapkido Championship in Yong in South Korea which was held at the National Police Academy. I was a yellow belt at the time and I had to beat two black belts to get it. I do have pictures of that. As far as i know I was the only foreigner to medal that year though there could have been a couple at the tail end as my teacher and I took off before all the medals were distributed.
I also have the aforementioned Muay Thai certs. Though I really don't care much for Muay Thai I just wanted the certs in case I ever wanted to teach MA since everyone holds MT in high esteem.
My Xingyi and 7 star were pretty much private lessons so no certs.
I am a brown belt in Judo USJA and I am a Blue Belt in BJJ.
I am trying to start a local martial arts school were I live but I am probably going to have to do it from the health aspect since a friend of mine and former teacher in Shaolin tried to start his own school and few people showed interest. I'll be getting a blog up where I will be demonstrating some Xingyi and 7 star forms to advertize my school and so that people can try it out on their own and see if they like it. And I'll tell some more stories as I have quite a few.
