My wife trains kenpo with me. She's not much into shootfighting though. Recently, we haven't been training at all. I just moved and haven't had too much success in getting ahold of the local kenpo guy. I kind of want to move to BJJ but she is determined to stay with kenpo. Anyhow, until my job slows down we are better established here, the whole thing is kind a moot discussion. Luckily, my job training encompasses a lot of PT and defensive tactics.
 
I guess my uncle, whom I don't know very well is involved in Tae Kwon Do, according to my father. My younger brother has been involved in Tae Kwon Do for about half a year.

Our family however, has had a bit of 'fighting' sports sometime throughout their life. My dad touched a little bit on martial arts while in the military. And his whole side of the family has been in the military. My mom, and her grandfather both trained in boxing.
 
Of course me, then my wife is a 1st Dan, my son's a first Poom, my 8 yr old is red black stripe and my 6 yr old is also a red with black stripe. My brother is a thrid Okinawa Karate my moms a second and both of my sisters are blackbelts my father is decease but he was a Grand Master in Karate and was a heck of a master drill sargent in the Old Marine corp. if I do not say old he'll rollover in his grave.
 
My younger brother and I study Kenpo together, he has just started a couple of months ago.
 
No one else just me, sad isn't it...
 
Just me right now. My two boys started first, then I. After a few years of training they stoped, but I still continue to study.
 
I attend the adult class and my 11 year old son attends the childrens class. He is 11 years old and started when he was 9. My daughter tried a class when my son joined but it wasn't for her. She's more interested in school sports and acedemic clubs. My son and I LOVE our classes.
 
My wife and my two children!
My wife, Melissa, is pretty good. No 'dynamo' or anything, but working with her in Kenpo makes me feel more assured that she could handle violence were she required too.

My son (6) and daughter (4), it's more of a game that I play with them. We just have fun, but we have fun while Dad tries to keep them in 'Good form'. My daughter REALLY enjoys working with Clubs too. "WHACK"
:whip: (Little sister -> big brother)

Just got my son his first Gi too. He loves it.

Lone MAist in my family here. We have a pure warrior bloodline, but that's died down in the last few generations, it seems.
 
Well it started with me, then my sister got into it, then my little brother...then my little cousin, then my best friend that used to be my cousin(Due to a divorce).........So where all MAists lol...it all started with me...well my uncle and aunt take TKD, but I don't train with them, nor do I take TKD. They kinda influenced me, but not entirely
 
My grandfather is a black belt in Miyama Ryu Jiujitsu and my uncle is a Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do instructor in upstate New York.
 
MY SISTER AND MY NEPHEW

They started a few weeks ago and are now becoming very commited and im very proud of them
 
The secret to a long marriage...study separate arts in separate towns! Aikido and Kenpo...Smithtown...Huntington! :uhyeah:
 
Myself and my 5 kids are all in Kenpo. My Uncle and two cousins are all black belts in TKD, the two cousins both fought through the 80's in kickboxing and are both held world titles. My mother made Orange belt in TKD before she found out she was pregnant with me.
