| Muay Thai Kickboxing here. I love it. I used to compete on a pretty high level in Tae Kwon Do... so now I'm trying to get back into competition, but with something new. It's gonna take a while to get where I want to be.. but I think I can get there <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> |

| I trained 7 years in (now) Green Dragon Kung Fu club, and 4 years in Wing Chun.<p>Currently, I've been studying Jeet Kune Do concepts which is a mix of Silat, Escrima, and Arnis. No Sifu's teach this out here either, although there've been a few JKD Training seminars over at BSM Martial Arts Academy.<p>Yeah, the guy at Maxximum Martial Arts really knows what he's doing. I really want to get into some of the submission fighting styles he offers, but they're too expensive for me at the moment. Plus it's a bit intimidating when you're practicing submission fighting with a guy who's twice your size <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--><p>I'm currently seeking someone who teaches Capoeria, anyone know of any Capoeria Sifu's out there?..<p> |

| I didn't make it to Rum Jungle. I did however go to a card our gym put on here in Calgary. I forget what it was called. There were about 12 bouts, headlined by my Gym's very own Trevor "TNT" Smandych (sp?). That was probably the best fight I ever saw. <p>My gym is having an all girls fight card here in February. I'll probably skip it, but it'd be good nevertheless.<p>I go to National Kickboxing in Calgary, with Kru Mike Miles. The guy is a legend. YOu should see the pictures of him in our gym, with Benny the Jet, Peter Cunningham, Bas Rutten, etc.. <p>Andy, I think there is a Capoeira instructor in Edmonton. At the U of A there were posters for a seminar about a year ago. Never like dancing though <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--> |

There is huh?... Now I'll have to find him...<p>As for "dancing" When was the last time dancing looked this cool:<p>http://www.bilang.net/videos/Sampler3/Relampago-Sampler.mpg<p>http://www.bilang.net/videos/Sampler2/Albertville2001-Sampler.mpg<p>Two Capoeiristas Sparring:<p>http://www.etribe.de/Capoeira/movies/capo1.mpg<p>Some Wushu stuff:<p>http://www.bilang.net/videos/Sampler2/Wushu-Sampler.mpg<p>Well if you come across any info about Capoeira, let me know, thanks.<p>There were two thing I want to focus on, one is submission fighting, and Capoeira.

Wow.. You ppl could probably squish me with your pinky.. hahaha..
I figured you ppl would be good ppl to ask.. What should I pick up? I did a bit of TKD.. A bit of boxercise.. I want something that'll work on my body and help me vent stress.. Nothing like.. Tai Chi where I'd get too impatient |

Hey andy, did you say BSM academy? I trained there for about 6 months a few years back. I actually thought his grappling was good for street use and loose can back that up <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--> All he saw was the sky is you know what i mean. I wouldnt mind joining him again. He offered a wide range of different martial arts training which you could pick and choise from. I wouldnt mind kickboxing and grappling again.....
Its time to claim the belt from Loose again <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> |

Uhhhh, Okeee big guy.
This is our fight history:
-I kicked your ass for 2 years
-you went to BSM and kicked my ass once
-I kicked your ass for the next 3 years
-I drunkenly challenged you to go at the Plant, you kicked my ass, I was bleeding, I tried to get back into the bar, my hand froze to the door handle, we got inside, I projectile vomited 4-5 times in the washroom.
-we didn't fight for 2 years
-fought 2 weeks ago, I hit you about 8 times, you hit me once, and I hit the dirt <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
And you have to claim what from me?<!--emo&???--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->
I think I need to get the title from you, infact, next time I see you, I'm gonna kick your ass! <!--emo&:0--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo--> |
