Just saw this thread

Mauthos is from a character I used to play in WoW, yes I know...

I am from Bristol UK now living in Weston-Super-Mare after returning from a 3 year working stint in Toulouse, France.

The discipline I teach is Kenpo and I also still train in Kick Boxing, Tang Soo Do and Jujitsu.

Other than martial arts I enjoy reading, writing, playing video games, spending time with my family, keeping fit and generally working to live, not living to work.

What's your name mean - David means beloved and Wayne means Wagon maker. so blessing or a curse. you choose lol

Where are you from-Southaven, Mississippi

What discipline are you training in-Boxing (not for anything but for fitness purposes.) Soon to be training in Aikido...

What you like to do other than Martial Arts- I sing karaoke, play ps3, walk my dog, see movies, travel, (what the hell else is there do to in a small town.), oh I also play bass guitar.


Add whatever else you would like ~!

When you live in a small town you're pretty much cut off from everything good. Thank God Memphis is just around the corner but I will still have to go a little bit out of my way to train in any martial art that peaks my interest. But I'm not bothered by that. I guess my eventual solution is to move close to where I train so that problem is solved but then I won't be close to family so there's always a problem.

I'd also add that I love all martial arts. I'd cross train in all of them if I was able too.

Age, rank Serial number *G*

I'm 33 until Nov 13 and I'll be 34. mentally I'm a black belt. Rank wise I'm a white belt. Except Shotokan I'm a yellow even though I'm not a fan of their style. Hence why I do not train.​

My name'd be Ally, nickname version of my real name, "Mallt", Welsh for the German "Maud", meaning "Mighty in Battle".

Spent the first half of my life (and elementary school) in Astana, Kazakhstan with the mum's side of the family. Moved to Wrexham to stay with the dad's side of the family just before secondary school rolled in, and I've been based in the UK ever since.

Currently focusing on the Keysi Fighting Method under the general program. It's been about two and a half years now. Prior to this I've 2 previous years of JKD.

Other than martial arts, I like following the local football and rugby scenes, and I'm a bit of an aspiring polyglot. Besides Kazakh, Welsh and English, I'm fluent in Spanish, French and Portuguese, and currently immersing myself in German, Dutch and Luxembourgish.:)

Dngineering student from Glyndwyr. I push for sustainable development, green industry and renewable energy in the United Kingdom, Europe and across the globe today. *not a militant tree-hugging hippy.

22, female, KFM Advance-level student. Eligible for Elite-level module by the end of spring 2015.

HI Doreen! If you create a separate thread in the "General Martial Arts" sub-forum you'll probably have a lot more people see your question and potentially offers responses.

I was actually used this app in 2 years ago.
But anyway I'll introduce myself anyway..
As you can see my name Is Kevin.

I used to be a kyokushin practitioner and I got yellow belt (a beginner). But now I'm practicing muay thai a month ago (still a beginner)


I don't really remember how I used this app, and I'm not sure this is the right place to introduce yourself..
Oh well..
God bless you all
