This website looks like the right thing I was searching for and the people seem to have a mature knowledge of martial arts. It's like I have found some soul mates here!
My name is Henri, but you may also call me Henry. I have started my path as a martial artist at the age of seven, training in the traditional arts of karate (goju-ryu, shito-ryu, shorin-ryu). Because of my devotion and love to karate, I also study histories and principles of other (Asian) martial arts.
When I reached the age of fifteen, I experienced an enlightenment. I noticed that I wasn't just improving my physical abilities - my mental strength increased tremendously too. I haven't just grown up as a martial artist - but as a person, too.
Martial arts have also provided me shelter. Whenever life gets me down, I can overcome the challenges. Karate training has compensated many things in my life like an unfortunate childhood, relationships and other "luxuries of life". Karate is everything for me, and I am very grateful and I owe a lot to martial arts.
I have a dream... I hope that one day I could travel around the world and try training in different martial arts around the world. That would be the adventure of a lifetime!
I try to be as active as possible on these forums, but let's see what happens, because next monday I start my military service in the military police training (I hope).
Thank you for your interest, brothers and sisters! And Happy New Year!
Osu!
