I'd say nice but as i tried it i didnt like it, just because its more or less pointless and a waste of time, you'll never be like in those chinese movies fight 50 people at once, be as fast, or anything. Its just a waste of time i guess.... boxing is much more rewarding, increases ur stamina and makes you more able to fight. I used to do boxing aswell but dont do it no more, best 'sport' for me now is to play play games, drink a coke and eat pizza all at the same time :O ... now thats skill (only until i get my gcse's which i failed then i expect that my mum will beat me, so might aswell make most of my time).:tongue1:

Oh and only thing im doing now as a 'sport' although it aint is play piano :D yeh stupid parents and piano lessons -.-

Ryan Rhodes' trainer was who i trained with.

Was good ^^

My best mates mum, sister and her are all into karate, and all teach it, hence why i learnt it, but i got bored and quit.

And there dad was a pro boxer, hence why i did boxing :D

I've got a 1st Dan black belt in Shotokan karate. Done it from when i was 6/7 till about 14/5. Left about 2 month after got black belt because had to wait till i was 18 to do grading for 2nd dan.

I left aswell coz the sensei was boring and did'nt do much kumite (semi contact fighting ) ( which is the best bit ).

I would scan me license to show people but aint got a scanner :S

Near when i left i had a couple of sessions in Jujitsu and that is alot more physical and more intresting to be honest. So started training in that got to 2nd Kyu ( brown belt ) then moved down south and have'nt done it since.

It is something i would wanna get back into as its a fun / good way of keeping fit.
