Hey every one pleasure to be here, I've been busy with school work so posting hasn't be an option so let me take a moment to do so. Are the any other martial artists out there who were inspired to do martial arts because of watching anime or just because its way of life like me? "My sword is part of life as a swordsman and I take Iaido very seriously as a spiritual discipline" Are their any other swordman at this forum? If so what school are you from I'm of the Mizu Hi Kobu Kai dojo which roughly translated is Fire water school.   "Bows" Thankyou for your time.

"We stand in awe before that which cannot be seen"

Hey

Martial artist is a martial artist. I'm honored Daisy that you revealed you are a martial artist. We all improve in our own time the key is practice as my sensei says once you learn it  you must do it ten thousand time more to perfect it. Man let me tell you it been alot of pain conditioning my body to even be able to do what I can, though I'm still just a junior student in the class. But the spiritual benifits and reward as well as the physical have been great. We just must live to the fullest and achieve our destinys. "Bows"

I took about 3 1/2 years of  Muay thai when i was a little younger (started about 12 ish), i quit cause i didnt have the time any more but i still practice and all. It was more for  just something to do and i liked it a lot. I also took karate when i was about 8 (mom made me haha) and i learned how to use a bo stick (i think thats spelled right) i only took karate for about a year though and wasnt really good at it lol. i liked the bo stick though.
