Hi Hakoko,

Welcome to FMA!...I think you are really going to enjoy your time training in a very effective and practical art...

With that being said, how about this:

Focus on FMA for a while, get good at it, then check out Muay Thai and/or Dog Brothers...no question that you will benefit from MT or DB, but no need to put too much on your plate too soon...if you put too much, you may get discouraged from one of them...I too am built like you and I enjoy the flow that I've developed from FMA...but I also like being able to move from range to range...FMA develops this in each fighter...

I suspect that if Guro Dan teaches FMA like my instructor does(Master Narrie Babao), then you are definitely going to get alot of information fast-and you'll have to practice it over and over to get proficient...which requires your free time...then he'll give you more and more new info-it seems that catching up is next to impossible...but you eventually do...

Just my opinion, but be careful about overdoing it...

Good Luck!
