Can't say a thing for the photo, could be fixed, no idea, but true shaolin monks are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! They've stodd completely still as people broke 2x4 boards over their chests/arms/heads. They didn't even move an inch when they got hit. Talk about self-control! My sensei from Isshinryu Karate is like 65+ years old, and he can split a stack of bricks 15 high right in half
Lol, naw, I'm not registered as a lethal weapon, but I'm a pretty decent fighter if I'm allowed to say so (Edit) if you tell me you think thats pretty hot, I swear I'll run off screaming like a sissy
Well those monks sure can be extreme. Myself I study karate and think I'm alright but there are a lot out there better then me cause I'm still training.

(removed)! us little people are notorious for hitting below the belt... but then again, we're short so our hitting range is prob gonna be somewhere unpleasant for tall guys!
I wear my cup through all two hours of my karate class, even for the stretch workouts. Accidents can happen obviously and I want full use of my body parts lol... but we are stepping into a need to know basis and some of you just don't need to know j/kmy roundhouse kick is always a headshot because of my height... same with side kicks.

Cups are too annoying, all bulky and stuff >I'll spar with you, but it's been a while since I've been in a kumate/tournament, I'm putting myself through training so I can start again. Sure, sounds like fun. I get the bat, ok?

"i think that carrie will have my back""you betcha! you can count on me"Great, so it sounds like Hope and Carrie will be a tagteam against me and Mavrik.
Quote, originally posted by Mavrik »HEY!!!!! now tag team sounds perfect! But I'll spar, just this is no blood sport kumate thats for sure... heh cause I'm no Van Damme.So you can't do the splits like he can? I just love that...

Kumate isn't a one-place-only thing, it's a Japanese tournament, typically for Karate students. the Isshinryu school I was trained in held a private Kumate every Thursday for students who held a high enough belt. *Gets into a story-telling pose* I started out in Tae Kwon Do (They focus a lot on flashy kicks), and thought I had something over the Isshinryu students when I started there. So my first match in the Kumate is against a black belt in that school. The second the sensei started the match, I literally flew backwards 5-10 feet and landed hard on my (removed). Ahh well, that was years ago, and taught me a bit about humbility

I can almost do the splits but certainly not between two chairs...and I'm only orange belt, a few from black and a lot less knowledge then them. But I got some fancy kicks I am working on Banana split sounds good...

I probably could make one, but I was j/k My real specialty is General Tso's Chicken from scratch ^^It's one of my favorite foods and I learned to make it to perfection because eating at Chinese restaraunts 3 times a day got kinda expensive
I couldn't spell the type of karate I take for the life of me so I'll get the booklet with the style later and let you know. And I got till June to get stretched into the splits? Has taken me since sept to get where I am now.

Psst, Mavrik, here's an Asian man's secret: You don't have to do the splits all the way, just go as far as you can, then grunt a lot as you lean forward onto your arms.
