I train so I can protect myself, family, and others if I have to. I'm also thinking of getting into NHB and MMA, so.
Dan: What is it you do for a living? Are you a cop or perhaps military?

I started because i wanted to be able to defend myself.
When i was little i wanted to protect myself i was kinda scared to fight as a child.
Although.........i had never lost a fight the fear of losing a fight made me scared. Now 20yrs later it's because i love the training and the fact that my sifu and i have a father son like bond. plus........it helps to be choosen to pass on the style by the Grandmaster himself.  jmd161

train??? why bother training when I can post here like a tough guy instead?!???
no really.... I train cos I love martial arts and the physical/mental attributes you gain from them... and you learn skills to protect yourself if needed... I just love training... nothing like that training rush...

Why do you train?
My dad offered to teach me to fight @ the age of 5 y.o. I accepted & kept at it. Put me down for real world defense & fitness.

Well I started trainning as I was a small skinny little fellow, and I was really into the MA as a little kid but never thought about going to a school. Now Im into judo and a little jujitsu and I love it aye. Love the fitness factor that comes with the MA, and also love the self defence thing. Too easy to get killed now days so anyway I can protect myself the better off im going to be
Also next year im getting into competition a bit more than this year so I guess its a few options for me. Thanks for your time!! Scott
