A BJJ player and notorious pimp, Da Big Deezy, in the Crenshaw district tried to "raise up" and "slap a ho" ..... I impaled him with my retractible naginata. I wish there were more groundfighters in the world. They make my arsenal that much more deadly. - john takeshi

35 Years Young.
My Grandfather taught me some very rudimentary Boxing hands when I was very young and and joined a Judo club for a short while around 7 years old.
Started TKD at age 12 for 6 months
Did a form of Northern Wu Shu (old style)? with a Chinese instructor for 6 months at age 13.
Started Hung Gar Kuen/Tiger and Crane+CLF under Master Buck Sam Kong in 1996.... stopped training due to work related injury and other factors in 99.... resumed with my Sifu(BSK) in 2005 and have been training and trying to improve since then.
GM Buck Sam Kong, I met him on 10/14/2006 at the Martail Arts History Museum when he was induced into the Hall of Fame, saw him their another time also, a great Sifu and an excellent person. His colleagues are just like him, fine people.
I was their as my Sifu GM Ark Yuey Wong was also inducted that day.
Thank you much.

I'm of course unworthy. Dreamed about learning for 40 years. Started at 46, 5 months ago with Hung Gar. Through first form and now learning 4-part two person self defense. My forarms, just above each wrist, are very swollen tonight.
nope, not unworthy. You are part of the brethren. I am right there with ya, bro.

Oh Ten, I did recently meet Jerry Battle. He'd taken off for an injury I think so hadn't been around. He is very fast.

I've been training for 18 years.
In chronological order:

Kodokan Judo, 4 years (started while I was also training Kyokushin). Still train and compete.

Modern Army Combatives, since 2003 (LINE, prior to that, briefly). Level III Instructor. Oversee instruction on a daily/weekly basis, at the Battalion level.
SevenStar: It's hilarious seeing people's reactions when they see a big, black dude with a sword walking toward them.
Masterkiller: Especially when they're at the ATM.
WTF? How did we go from the White Haired Devil strangling and beating guys to death in a teahouse, to Mr Miyagi and Jhoon Rhee?

Not at all. I admire you for putting your stuff up. Some guys on here have so much experience that it can be quite intimidating. You're courageous, which is a great starting point.
