Hi everyone -

I'm a martial artist (currently studying mixed martial arts) looking to get in shape for testing in summer 2012. I'm looking for friends who love martial arts and want to share goals. Please friend me if you're interested and feel free to reply here so we can all friend each other.

I have a brown belt in karate. I don't practice anymore.. But I have to say I'm jealous you get too

I'm currently a black belt in Taekwondo and working for my second degree. Testing will be at the end of 2012. It was a great catalyst in my initial weight loss. Now it's helping with toning, endurance and flexibility.

Hey there! Another Martial Arts lover here!
I am a blue belt with red stripe in Taekwondo...testing for red belt in September
It's my favorite sport and I am normally there 4x a week. I also have a 18 yr old who is a black belt and has started instructing in the last year..so so proud of him!
TKD has been the thing to get me in shape & get me motivated to work out otherwise as I want to be fit & strong.
Feel free to add me..:flowerforyou:

Glad to have you in the group! I love TKD. It's beautiful to watch when people do it well. I'm also a fan of kicking - lots of kicking, especially head height and up. It makes me feel powerful

I just started TKD a few weeks ago, and my 7 year old son started at the end of May. The classes kick my butt but it's a great workout!

You can feel free to add me, I am 3rd Degree/Sandan Black Belt in a style of Japanese Ju-Jitsu. I have been studying for about 20 years, since I was 6 1/2.

I agree..and I wish I could get better at the head height and up--flexibility has been a LONG road for me!

I would love to join! I am a blue belt in Chinese Kenpo and just recently started back up again in American Kenpo and just got my orange belt. I LOVE IT!! I want my black belt so bad, just as much as I need 70 more pounds to get off.

Having a workout that you love is the way to go! If you enjoy it, then it isn't work.
