Welcome, John. Thanks for the honesty.

Hi! my name is Alex I am new here and glad to join this forum.Its gonna to be very nice to share and discuss all new relevnat things here.Thanks to all.

I'm Mike Michelozzi and a few months ago I started taking taekwondo classes because my twelve year old grand daughter asked me if I would with her and I thought that was a good idea.

My only previous experience is reading and watching a lot of youtube videos of all kinds of martial arts - bagua and aikido being my favorites. So for a few years I just improvised and tried to mimic what I saw and did some forms along with the stretching and other things I do.

For the past ten years I've hiked a couple of hours every morning and a few years ago began alternating with cycling outside. So I'm somewhat good shape for a sixty-seven year old and tkd is waking up new muscle groups, joints and connective tissue which I like.

That's it.

Welcome, Mike!

I think it's great that you have something like martial arts to share with your granddaughter.
