Hey, guys! Forum-name is "Pepsiman", though you more than welcome to call me Jonny. I hail from what I like to call the Sunburn State, and I've been dabbling in the martial arts for the better part of four years! I've been an aspiring Karateka and have trained a bit in Shotokan (under Sensei Jon Hodge at GMAU), Isshin-Ryu, and Kazen Ryu Karate (under Sensei John Bryan, which I have a formal ranking of yellow belt). Yeah, I'm still a young-blood in many respects, but I still love to discuss and research martial arts!
Just lately, I joined the Internal Fighting Arts online school, which is ran and operated by Sifu Ken Gullette. It encompasses Cheng-style Tai Chi Chuan (or "Taiji"), Baguazhang, and Xingyiquan (or "Hsing-I", I believe). A big change from Karate, but I figured it was time to change it up a bit, and I've got a LOT of learning and training ahead of me!
So, if you guys are willing to bear with me, I hope to make my bones here and engage in good discussions!
