Hello from cleveland.
I found this site and it looked like a great group of folks so i decided to register.
for the last 11 years i have been studying jkd concepts/mma/streetfighting under my teacher Freddie Thompson. Mr. thompson holds a black belt under Ed Parker, and subsequently spent many years studying with Dan Inosanto.
Independently i have also trained in JJ, and shootfighting.
As i get older my interest has turned to some of the so-called internal styles and i have begun studying taiji.
belts and ranks have no meaning to me, i see only two ranks in fighting - can, and cannot. i do not say this disrespectfully as belts/ranks have great meaning and are immense undertakings for certain people. those people's achievemants are certainly worthy of recognition and respect.
i look forward to witty discourse with you all %-}
