Hi

[Isshinryustudent]

[FONT=&quot]Hello My name is Matt and ive been taking isshinryu for the last 2 years of my life. *since i was 15* I am being trained under Al Ferrens at the mountain isshinryu karate academy. I am currently an orange belt. I have gone to the IWKA world tournment. I plan to go to more tournments in the future as i get better and learn more. I really enjoy the style and what it has done for my life.

I've been looking for a place on line to talk about martial arts and i found this site so I signed up and thought I would give it a try.

and thanks for reading.[/FONT]

Welcome to MT, Matt!

You picked a great style and, apparently a great school with integrity in its ranking system and a positive atmosphere for personal growth.

Welcome! I did Isshin-ryu for three years under George Insley's group out of Buffalo. But that was many years ago!
