@Joseph_MSU@CraigR3521 I started in traditional Tang Soo Do and my current school is a mixture of TSD and jiu jitsu. In both we start with kicho hyungs and move into the pyung ahn (heian) forms immediately after. But from my understanding those are taught fairly early in Yoshukai, too

To be fair, two SBN told me to call them by their first names, but only when nobody else was around. I called one Dr. once (Sc.D) and he almost popped me for it.
@MAGAlodon45_47@__0HOUR1_ I'm in my 40s, I have two bad knees, and I'm sore from martial arts. I can clear 8 feet in a fraction of a second cold right now, not worked up on adrenaline

@LuckyMcGee When I was a kid I asked about aliens. Mom said they couldn't be real because of Jesus having to die for them and how they couldn't be aware of His sacrifice. In adulthood I have come to believe that He could certainly manifest himself across space for them, too.
