Hey Kenny, welcome to the forums.

What sort of art are you looking to study? There is a wide range of arts represented here on Martial Talk so you can get information on just about any art.

Again, welcome to the forums, happy posting, and best of luck in school and in finding a place to train.

Hey Kenny,

Glad to see a new member on Martial Talk. U of M Flint is a great school. At least when I went there ;)

Contact me either PM here or [email protected] and we can discuss more about what you are looking for. Lots of different arts in the area, and suburbs of Flint. FMA (* what I teach *), KMA, JMA, CMA, and I am sure there are more.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Rich

:D Yeah, its ok. It took Rich a lot less time to get out of there than it took me :lol:

Seriously Kenny, Rich is a great resource as to what is going on in the area, take advantage of him. And if I can be of any help either, please let me know. Good luck

Kenny300,

We do Modern Arnis, which has belts, and there are others that do, do tournaments, but we do not in general. We can help you if you are interested. Our art has Weapons, Stick/Knife, Empthy Hands, including joint locks and throws, ..., .

Yet, I also know people in the TSD, TKD, Hsing I, Hapkido, JKD (* Marvin here on Martial Talk *), and others most likely.

Do you wish to continue studying Traditional JMA as in Traditional Karate, or do you wish to try other areas? Tell us a little more about what you are looking for, and we can guide you to an art and or school that can help you, get what you are looking for.

Honestly, I don't know what I'm looking for. I want to be able to defend myself and I want an art that is not just punching or just kicking. I dont know what kind of karate that I did, it was some type of "american karate". So I guess that could be anything.
