I found MT by "accident" I was looking for information on the background or lineage of the Ed Parker's American Kenpo Karate. When I googled there was a whole lot of pages of information; didn't know where to start or how. MT was a very random double click and I'm glad I did. I signed up the first day I found you, you know after lurking for a couple of hours. I am going to be testing for 3rd degree brown belt in American Kenpo Karate. I have two out of three boys that are also brown belts (an 11 year old and 7 year old). They are also Student Leaders and assist in teaching at the YMCA, I'm very proud of them. I'm a (*) year old Mexican-American living in the Bay Area for about 7 years. My kids and I joined our studio about 2 1/2 years ago. One of the best choices I ever made.

Welcome to Martial Talk! There was a poll done a bit ago here and if I remember right the vast majority of us found the site by accident. I know I did, and haven't left sense really. Glad to have you here.

It's good to have you with us, Curious! I lurked for several months before joining MT—had noticed previously that an awful lot of online MA boards seem to be kind of harsh environments, but saw fairly quickly that this place was profoundly different, not just from those other MA sites but from almost anything else on the Internet. It's a very fine place to be!
