September 17, 1991 I left Japanese and Korean martial arts and started Chinese Martial arts. Started with Taijiquan and went from there withe various CMA styles. But I have been doing Taijiquan for 30 years as of September 17, 2021
That's a long time.

Yes it is, I started when I was 5 :D

Yes it is, that also translates to I'm getting old...I will be 30 soon...... for the second time
As do we all. I was looking at my credit report a few days ago and I've got a few credit cards that I got when Bush 41 was President. :D

I started my first formal martial arts training at 11. It was a birthday gift, so, as of this past June, I've been training 50 years.😲

Didn't even notice!!😂😂

Went by quickly!😂🤣

Look who's talking!😂

How ya doing, neighbor? We're only one state away from each other, now.....as opposed to in the same state all those years ago......
Doing well considering my age. :) For the record I first stepped into a dojo in 1967. I did start late in comparison but to date (54) years. Not sure I can count these later years but I do what I can do.....Because of the nature of Okinawan GoJu (all low kicks) and nothing fancy I might consider being buried in my Gi..........now thats OLD. :) Good talking to you, see you here and (FB) there. Take care my Friend.
