Congratulations .. Now you can finally kill mice with bare hands 


many companies value people who have done stuff apart from academics or work. So yes, you can add this but in the interview or exams like gmat gre they might ask questions and you would have to answer them correctly. Any sport or other activity can be mentioned but they usually have lists of questions that they may ask.

My teacher advised me to put stuff other than academics or work exp. in the resume.

Gratz I only came to red belt in Aikido, after that I quit
What martial arts do you practice?

[techb]

I wrestled for a year in highschool. Also took Taekwondo for a summer. I never got any belts because I wasn't there long enough.


Anyway, congratulations.

Congrats tough guy

I started TaeKwon Do at an early age and got my black belt when I was twelve. It was a horrible teacher and she made it way too easy to get so I don't really consider myself a martial arts master at all. In other news I'd really like to take classes in Krav Maga or Kung Fu

How long does it take you to get the first belt in Teakwondo? and how long does it take to get the black belt?

Congratulations good sir.

How long does it take you to get the first belt in Teakwondo? and how long does it take to get the black belt?

If you are asking me it took me three years. Of course with a better program it might take longer. I think around three or four years is a good average for your first black belt.

Three years  , ok and what about white belt which I think is the first belt you get?

I think you get the white belt when you join. So, 0 years as long as you have the money.

^What this guy said. If you want to kick some serious ass though I'm sure any martial artist would tell you it takes a lifetime......or at least 5 to 10 years

Researchers say 2 years of hardcore studying can make anyone an expert in anything. But to be a master it will take a long time. But once you have enough experance you can go all Miyagi on some ass.

Oh my! Thank you all
It took me 10 years to get this second one, Which is in full TKD (as opposed to American  TKD) My first one is in American karate which took about 5 years. Foriegn martial arts is an ass kicking compared to what they teach here. I also do MMA and am a blue belt in BJJ.

has everyone here learned some martial art or other? suddenly i feel bad for myself .. There aren't good teachers here. I tried to learn but they do not value martial arts here, I had to do with other sport

Yeah, this will be a real noob question:- How is something "full" tkd and "half tkd" I mean punches are punches right? and please don't laugh at noob question.. I know there will be some techniques but I am unable to imagine anything..
