I'm 17 (nearly 18)
Trained in judo from age 12-15.5.
Then started Okinawan go-ju ryu roughly since then.

So...5 years experience all in all

I'm 19 and I've probably got like almost 6 years of MA in my body with a number of small breaks here and there (like a month or 2). 5+ years of Southern Praying Mantis and some small amount of time spent practicing Shaolin.

22, coming up on the big 2-3.

13 total years of MA experience, 7 of it in my childhood years.

5 years ATA TKD, from age 5 to 10.

From 10-12, worked with a small, private group (I was one of two kids) in a sparring-oriented TKD [two forms] (though the instructor worked in elements of Muay Thai and dirty boxing).

Took about four years off after the private classes closed out, then at 16 took up Isshinryu. I have been with this for coming up on 7 years.

Started weight training in 1999.
