hi! I'm new to this app and I'm looking for friends. (: my main hobby other than racing RCs is Martial Arts. I'm in a Tang Soo Do class. Any other styles are welcome too (:

    I've seen a lot of Martial arts people on the forums. most seem to be boxing or MMA. I've never had any training, but always been interested. There is a Krav Maga (or whatever it is lol) school by me and I've been thinking of doing that.

    what kind of RCs?

    I'm not a very high belt rank but I'm loving ever minuet of it. (: the class I'm in is like a family.

    And I race an older RC, it's an associated B4 kit. It's almost time to upgrade unfortunately. Do you race?

    no, those are car RCs I guess? lol. I hear drone racing is very big, and they do it POV basically with a camera.

    Not around here it isn't at least. And yup. (: RCs as in hobby RCs. They aren't really kids toys, unless it's like a stadium truck or 2WD SC truck. But the 1/8 scale buggies and truggies are scary.

    I earned my blackbelt in 08 in tkd, but after a car accident I quit practicing and gained a lot of weight. I'm working on getting back in shape so I can once again practice. I just don't have it in me to go back to a school when I can't handle pushups but I'm supposed to be a blackbelt.

    Not active anymore but did sport kickboxing and wado ryu to 1st dan before kids. Now I just beat on the bag at the gym. Hubster races 1/10 tamiya. Hubby had an associated B4 before an X6 and now an SV2. Started with M-03 minis many moons ago

    I've done the traditional style of taekwondo (not the style you see on the Olympics, but the style that is closer to karate) for about 12 years now. I'm at school far away from home so I can only practice on school breaks though. It's without a doubt my favorite form of exercise.

    Primary arts: Okinawan Goju-Ryu (Godan) and Okinawan Kobudo (Nidan).

    I've also trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, White Crane Gung-Fu, Aikido, and Koryu Uchinadi.

    21 years of experience.

    I don't compete anymore, and I don't teach anymore. I just train for me. I may pass the art on to my kids some day, if they are willing to live it.

    I earned a 2nd dan black belt in Shotokan Karate (I competed in full contact karate or kyokushin though. NO point fighting) and Judo as a kid but I quit training and competing when I was 14 and started playing football. Then I got into powerlifting and strongman and just recently went back and started taking Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes.

    Hi. I take taekwondo as well. I started 10 months ago and love it. Testing for my blue belt this month. Feel free to send a friend request if you'd like. I'm not currently logging food, but I'm active and I like to encourage my friends.

    Got black belt in tkd when i was 13, then my school moved outta my range. Did some mixed stuff off and on for a bit, then joined the martial arts club at my college and started grappling (bjj). I enjoyed the cool kicks of tkd, but grappling is best thing I ever competed in. Had to get a job again so now I can't do it this year but hopefully next year I'll be back at it.
