White Belt
Google search led me here! It feels uber non-traditional to seek advice online, but I thought I'd give this a try.
I've been training in martial arts since I junior high school. I've always been training "recreationally." I've always wanted to become a better and better fighter, but family and mentors warned me against it citing my personality as a handicap.
Recently, I've lost that fight against myself :ultracool and have been looking to become a better fighter. I'd like to orient myself better towards a goal and eventually compete in a kickboxing/mma type tournament, but I'm not looking to do anything beyond amateur... I've been told to be ready for a rude awakening.
Please help out a rookie!
My martial arts background:
1st degree black belt - Korea Hapkido Federation
2nd degree black belt - Kuksool-Hwalinkwan Hapkido
Few years and months in training Taekwondo, Taiji Plum Blossom Praying
Mantis, Judo, Juijitsu and some greco-roman influence
I've been self training boxing with guidance from mentors here and there.
I'll upload videos sometime. Other hobbies include automobile racing (roadracing), art, music.. I'm studying finance in college and manage a race team (FSAE) on campus.
Nice to meet you!
