I have to be a bit vague about my background. I will say that I have received instruction from Filipino instructors.

No worries. If you don't want to give out personal info, that's fine. I don't either. Welcome, Ace!

Hi all,
I guess I shoulda come here first before posting other places here. I'm Possum here and in Y!A. The name comes from my beloved pet cat.
I'm a 4th dan WTF taekwondoin, and have been practicing almost continually since April 1980. I also practice ITF taekwondo, and I'm also a 4th kyu in Aikido, been doing that for 3 years now.
I am also a computer programmer - Java and .NET - and hang out occasionally on the Y!A section for programming. If you want, ask me anything.

I am a long time reader and occasional contributor on YA. I started martial arts in 1991 (Kempo) and have been training off and on ever since. I have been a martial arts fan since childhood and I've been watching MMA since I saw UFC 1 back in 1993.

Hello everyone, I am Batman. I was on Yahoo Answers under my real name Matt, but I doubt any of you know me because I was more of a lurker. I never really had a reason to post anything because by the time I would see the question, someone else had already answered it exactly as I would answer it, lol.
Anyway, I'm 19 years old and I've been involved in martial arts since I was 6. My mom had me in a community soccer league, but I had absolutely no interest in the game so instead of going after the ball, I would try to kick the legs of the other players. She realized her mistake and put me in a kickboxing class almost immediately.
A few years ago I discovered BJJ and absolutely fell in love with it. I've been in this BJJ gym for a year and a half and am currently a blue belt. More recently I've been doing some Muay Thai and love that as well.
A little about me. I'm very much into music and comic books (hence my name). My favorite music genre is punk rock. I am in college majoring in Criminal Justice. I intend to post here a lot more than I did over at Yahoo, so no longer will I be just a lurker. I look forward to having many conversations with all of you!
