Hey everyone,

I'm new to the forum, so I thought I'd post here. In terms of career, I'm a pianist and a writer, but I've loved the martial arts for about 17 years now... so, most of my life! haha :)

I started off at a McDojo, unfortunately, learning Kenpo. My enthusiasm dwindled and I dropped out after about a year. From there, I was fortunate enough to secure some private lessons in Jeet Kune Do and Ninpo, which I loved infinitely more.

I also started Tai Chi, but my training stopped for a few years during college - I'd continue to read about the martial arts and self-defense, but I wasn't actively training.

I started back up again this summer, refreshing my JKD and such, but also venturing into fresh territory with Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jujitsu and a smattering of Aikido and Wing Chun.

Anyway, that's where I am and I look forward to my time here!

Hi, and welcome!

Which style of Tai Chi? I practiced a while in Vegas with a Chen-style teacher, then for a while with a Yang-style teacher. I preferred the Chen style.

Tai Chi Chuan is all I was told, though I learned one complete form - though I don't remember the whole thing anymore - called Cheng Man-Ching, I think.
