Hello Friends
Just joined the forum and wanted to say hello.My name is Frank and it seems we all have something in common,martial arts.I started doing western boxing when I was kid,my grandfather(WWII generation when men where men)was a boxer in his youth and taught me(ouch).I have dabbled in a few arts through out my life but my passion is taekwondo and xing yi.I have been practicing tkd for 9 years and xy for a year now.I have found this combo both hard and interesting.My tkd is becoming more internal and my xy,looks external(but gets a little better each day) if that makes sense.I mostly practice because I love to.


Frank

Did you ever work out with your grandfather?I was raised by mine and me and him had a boxing/running workout we did for quite a few years when I was young.Than he got a little older and slowly stopped doing these things.I strongly believe he may still be here today if he did'nt get a bit lazy in his 70's.
