Wish me luck...

I am testing for my Yellow belt on Thursday.

I have always wanted to train in a martial art but time has always been an issue for me. Not so much the amount of time....all the Dojo's around here only have evening hours and that just does not work for me.

I found a teacher to come to my house and train me in the morning/ So far it is working out great. I am not interested in fighting for sport, more so for the state of mind that comes with traditional martial arts....

Got it....passed with ease actually. My teacher is very impressed. says I am one of the most dedicated he has seen. That made me feel better than getting the belt.

Congratulations. What discipline is this? I read that you were interested in TMA, but I must have missed the actual discipline.

Goshin-Do Karate (from Okinawa, Japan). Based very much on self defense, and nothing really to do with sport MA.

I train a bit of Ren Raku Do. It is based on Okinawan, but is really Hawaiian. It is also a self defense art, based on some of the "hard" styles of karate.
