Over last 4 yrs have been conducting one-on-one instruction to "training partners". At 50 yrs of age I am considering going back to Aikido.
Reply:I've trained in one thing or another since I was 12, now 40. I really don't think I need to give spec. years of training because I tend to be eclectic and gather what i want from things and move on. With that I could list 4 that I remain training in to this day. Aikido, BJJ, Escrima/Kali, MMA. Those four span for around 16 of those years, total.
Reply:Tae kwon do = June 2004 - August 2006


Muay Thai = August 2006 - current..(and plan to do it for aslong as possible)





interested in learning a grappling art to compliment my standing skills..
Reply:I train in my head mostly.
