Hello!
I am a Syrian dude and Shotokan brown belt (1st Kyu). I used to do various Korean arts (both classic and modern Taekwondo styles) but now my priorities lie in Shotokan. I do, however, enjoy reading about all kinds of martial arts (mainly striking arts) and have a very big interest in kata history/bunkai. I am also a certified personal trainer with an interest in body mechanics as they relate to fighting arts, as well as body fitness/conditioning in general.
I am a firm believer of the idea that it is the artist - not the art - that prevails. I don't believe that any art is superior to the other and I see all styles equally (except no-touch Kung Fu which is an absolute meme).
I hope to share and gain plenty of knowledge during my time here.
